The toddler was seen leaving on foot with Phillip Edwards, 33, and police are still trying to find him.
Police say he is wearing a dark blue hoodie, black jeans and Nike shoes and anyone who may have seen him should call 111 immediately.
Officers earlier said they were treating the incident as an abduction and putting significant resources into the operation.
One local resident says he saw the child and a man leave the house on foot while a woman screamed from the home.
A helicopter and the Police Maritime Unit were involved in the search for the toddler.
