Who runs the classes?
Meet Cara.
Cara is one of the midwives that teaches our Chiswick antenatal classes. Cara completed her midwifery training as a mature student at Kingston University and St George’s Hospital in 2019. Prior to this she worked for MacMillan Cancer Support delivering social support services. Cara says: “We are all so wonderfully different and childbirth is no exception. I’m really looking forward to teaching you on the HPHB course which goes above and beyond to recognise your individual choice. I’ll be providing you with lots of information and making sure that you feel absolutely supported in making the choices that are right for you. I want you to have the most positive pregnancy and childbirth experience possible, whilst sharing this with some other fabulous people… and having a laugh along the way.”
How does this differ to NCT classes in Chiswick?
The reason NCT springs to mind first for many people when thinking about antenatal classes is because the classes have been around since the 1950s. For many decades they were the only form of antenatal classes available. This means many people believe that all antenatal classes are NCT classes, which is not the case.
The NCT is a charity and instructors complete a degree course to teach the classes. All Happy Parents Happy Baby instructors are midwives and doctors so have a degree but also thousands of hours of practical experience working in birth centres and hospitals.
Unlike NCT classes, our antenatal classes all include hypnobirthing and baby first aid at no extra cost. At the time of writing, NCT classes in Chiswick are priced at £369, compared to £199 for Happy Parents Happy Baby antenatal classes. NCT classes in Chiswick are held at St. Michael’s Church whereas our classes take place at The Crown and Anchor so you can relax and make the most of socialising with your course mates.
Our local Chiswick community
Most of the people coming on our Chiswick course are from Chiswick. The course is also popular with those living in neighbouring areas of Gunnersbury, Kew, Turnham Green and Ravenscourt Park.
From walks in the beautiful Chiswick House or by the River Thames, to coffees on the High Road and playdates at each other’s houses, graduates from our Chiswick antenatal classes are never short of things to do together.
Is it worth it?
“Truly brilliant course. Couldn’t wish for better. Feel so much more empowered about birth and looking after baby having been on this course. The resources you’re given afterwards are great too. Excellent value for money! Thanks guys”
Kate and Jason, January course
