Prior to joining politics, Cheng had 12 years of grassroots experience, helping out with the People's Action Party's Bukit Panjang branch with its Meet-the-People sessions.[6] She is also vice-chairman of a grassroots committee in Tampines East.[7] Cheng contested and won in the 2015 general elections under the Tampines Group Representation team.[8] She was appointed as a deputy district advisor for PAP Women's Wing in 2016.[9]

During the Parliamentary session on 7 March 2018, Cheng criticised the Public Transport Council for lowering transport fares in recent years, claiming that current fare formula need to be tweaked so that fares can keep up with operating cost and not burden taxpayers like herself.
