Who runs the classes?
Meet Ann.
Ann is one of the midwives that teaches our Norwich antenatal classes. Ann has worked as a midwife since 2014 when she graduated from the University of Suffolk. She has two young children and loves family days out. In her spare time she enjoys netball and Pilates. She says "I love sharing the excitement and anticipation of antenatal classes and can't wait to welcome you to the course!"
How does this differ to NCT classes in Norwich?
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 Norwich are priced at £269, compared to prices from £199 for Happy Parents Happy Baby antenatal classes. NCT classes in Norwich are held at 1st Norwich Sea Scouts, whereas our classes take place at St Andrews Brew House where you can relax and make the most of socialising with your course mates.
Our local Norwich community
Most people on our Norwich course are from Norwich. The course is also popular with people living neighbouring areas of Cringleford, Little Melton and Bowthorpe.
From walks in Eaton Park and Earlham Park, to hangouts in the coffee shops and at each other’s houses, graduates from our Norwich antenatal classes are never short of things to do.
Is it worth it?
“This course was brilliant. It’s completely different to the NHS classes – it’s really interactive, modern and progressive. There are a whole team of different specialists to support you and you come away with great friends because they really help you get to know each other. Thanks HPHB!”
Katie and Sam, February course
