I manage my own, but I do that for my other jobs as well. So I guess you could say I'm a part time sysadmin. I say do it yourself. You don't have that much fine tuning to do. I just personally doubt that you're going to get very good "management" from your provider. It will be most useful in a situation of "please install nginx to run on a separate IP so I can serve static content." It will not be useful in preventing attacks, etc. Although I guess they could have really high service quality, I believe most places will scrimp on the services b/c they need to compete on the price. And the whole reason for going managed is the services.
