My Summary
About Me
Hey there! I’m a Level 3 qualified Early Years Practitioner and an Ofsted registered Childminder, with a passion for child development and childcare. With three little ones of my own, I know just how important it is to create a fun and engaging environment for kids. Here’s a bit more about me and my awesome setting:
With over 8 years of experience working with children of various ages in a nursery setting, I’ve now embraced childminding to care for my own three kids while providing a childcare service underpinned by the EYFS framework. My approach celebrates individuality and encourages learning through each child’s unique interests, making every day a fun and enjoyable experience. Learning is tailored to challenge each child at their own pace.
Cheeky Cherubs Childminding is nestled in Bushby, close to Thurnby, Houghton-On-The-Hill, Stoughton, Billesdon, and Evington, and is your child’s home away from home. We offer a safe, fun, and nurturing environment where kids can dive into a variety of activities, including:
• Messy, creative, and role play
• Sensory and construction play
• Reading, music, and dance
• Physical activities - our secure enclosed garden and access to three play parks mean our outings are always packed with active fun and adventure!
• Plus…we offer nutritional meals tailored to any dietary needs.
We use an online system that I’ll guide you through. This dynamic platform handles child registrations and tracks development with photos and observations, so you can always keep up with your child’s learning journey.
As a parent, I know how tricky transitions and settling in can be, that’s why I ensure an honest and reliable approach to support you and your child as needed.
I have an Ofsted registration certificate, enhanced DBS certificate, and the required insurance certificates - all available to view on request.
My Experience
I’ve been working with children for over 8 years in nursery settings, and I’ve had the joy of working with kids of all ages, primarily with the early years age group (0-5).
But don’t just take my word for it! I have references from my last nursery job, available upon request.

We honestly cannot speak highly enough of Cheeky Cherubs Childminding. From the very beginning, our son has been made to feel so welcome, safe and loved. He is picked up from school by the childminders and spends the rest of his day with them, and it truly feels like his second home.
He is incredibly well settled and completely at ease with the childminders (Krishna, Manisha and Shivani) and the other children. As parents, there is no greater reassurance than knowing your child is somewhere they feel safe, happy and genuinely at home.
What impresses us most is that the care goes far beyond simply keeping the children occupied and making sure they are well fed. The childminders are genuinely invested in our son’s development, learning and school journey. They take the time to understand what he is learning at school and regularly create fun, imaginative games, puzzles and activities to keep him engaged, interested and challenged. It is clear that they put so much thought and effort into helping him learn while making sure he is having fun.
The holidays are equally amazing. He attends full-time throughout the school holidays, and somehow every day feels like a new adventure. From day trips and exciting activities to simply exploring and learning about the world around him, he is constantly experiencing new things. He comes home having learned something new and with a story to tell.
And the best part? When we pick him up, he is always full of smiles. He cannot wait to tell us everything he has been up to that day, the adventures he has had and, of course, all about the delicious meals he has eaten!
As parents, we genuinely feel that our son is cared for like a member of their own family. Nothing ever feels like too much trouble, and no request is too big. The level of communication between the setting and us as parents is outstanding. We always feel listened to, informed and reassured, and we know that our son is in the very best hands.
We are incredibly grateful to have found such a wonderful childcare setting. The love, care, effort and dedication that goes into looking after our son does not go unnoticed, and we truly appreciate everything you do for him.
Thank you for giving him a safe, happy and nurturing second home, for encouraging his learning, for creating so many wonderful experiences and, most importantly, for making him so incredibly happy. We are so grateful for you all.
Outstanding childcare in every sense of the word — we couldn’t recommend you highly enough! Thank you!!

We are so grateful for your kind words and lovely feedback. ❤️ Your little one is an absolute joy, and we’re delighted to be part of their journey. Thank you for trusting us with their care and for taking the time to share your experience. 🥰
We truly couldn’t have asked for a more caring and wonderful place for our son. From the moment he started, it was clear how much love, patience, and dedication goes into looking after the children at Cheeky Cherubs. Our son has grown so much in confidence and happiness, and he absolutely loves going each day. Knowing he is in such a warm, safe, and nurturing environment gives us complete peace of mind as parents. It really feels like a home away from home for him.
Everyday is different for our little one , there’s always fun , educational activities planned and Krishna is always so attentive to what my son requires.( Krishna also offers a halal meal which is quite hard to find in other nurseries/settings.)
We are so grateful for the kindness, support, and genuine care shown to our little boy. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Krishna I would not change it in any way. We couldn’t recommend this setting more highly.
5 stars!!!!

Thank you so much for the kind words and wonderful feedback! It’s an absolutely joy having your little one as a part of the Cheeky Cherubs family :)
We transitioned our son to Krishna's setting after two years at a nursery. Despite continuous efforts, he never settled at the nursery. The moment we switched to Krishna, everything changed. The difference was instant and our son settled immediately.
Krishna provides a loving, structured, and genuinely caring environment. It truly feels like a "home away from home". She is dedicated, always engaging the children with thoughtful activities.
We love that she perfectly balances indoor and outdoor activities, ensuring the kids are constantly learning, exploring, and moving.
We are grateful to have found Krishna. We recommend her without hesitation.
