A nursery in Ipswich is celebrating after receiving a positive Ofsted report despite uncertainty around the nursery's future.
Bright Sparks Nursery in Stoke Park Drive was visited by inspectors from the education watchdog July this year.
The provider was seen as good across all areas, with Ofsted judging them as good for overall effectiveness.
In the build-up to inspectors visiting the nursery, there were fears that the long-running nursery would close due to not having enough trustees on the board.
Rachel Steel, the nursery business manager and trustee, said: "We are over the moon.
"It's been a lot for staff to go through with the uncertainty of the nursery's future and then to get a call from Ofsted.
"The staff do an amazing job with the children and everyone did amazing, the children were fantastic."
Inspectors found that children "arrive excitedly and express their keenness to attend, as they happily wave goodbye to their parents at the door."
The report also notes that "children demonstrate their motivation and passion to learn and succeed" and they benefit from the real-life experiences and continual access to outdoor play.
Staff were praised throughout the report also, with Ofsted finding that they "get to know children before they start and spend individual time with them".
They said they are "tuned in to children's emerging language and use Makaton sign language to enhance children's social communication skills."
Parents also praised the "superb progress" their children make and how they feel part of a 'second family'.
Ms Steel continued: "We have our new trustees, we have our great Ofsted, we have spaces in our nursery and we want to keep going strong."
