Sweet child (6)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
cherub
'sweet child' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for cherub that I've seen before include "Angelic child" , "A chubby infant with wings" , "Sweet little baby" , "Angel shown as a winged child" , "Angelic baby" .)
