How much are Basildon antenatal classes?

Our Basildon antenatal classes are priced at £199 for two people. We provide a single-parent discount. See our FAQs for full details.

 

How does this differ to NCT classes in Basildon?

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 Basildon are priced at £269, compared to £199 for Happy Parents Happy Baby antenatal classes. NCT classes in Basildon are held at Little Burstead Village Hall, whereas our classes take place at a local pub so you can relax and make the most of socialising with your course mates.
