The settings was built in 2007 and was originally set up with two rooms. As demand grew, a third room, for toddlers, was opened in a space in the City Hall, beside the purpose-built building. The design includes large glazing elements that allow lots of light. The children have developed a sense of community as they visit nearby city amenities such as Bishop Lucey Park, Crawford Art Gallery and the Fire Station, and events within the City Hall. The outdoor space is accessed through the Baby Room. Cheeky Cherubs have 2 other creches in Cork.
