Cambridge: where are the classes held?

Who runs the classes?
Meet Sophie.
Sophie graduated from London City University in 2015 and has spent her career working in all areas of midwifery but has focused her time working on delivery suite in recent years. She’s also a Mum to three daughters and loves getting out for a run or into the garden for a spot of ‘quiet time’ when she can! Sophie says “I feel really excited and privileged to support families through this incredible time in their lives. I’ll ensure they feel prepared for everything this adventure may throw at them in a sociable, fun and supportive environment!”
How does this differ to NCT classes in Cambridge?
NCT classes have been around since the 1950s and for many decades were the only antenatal classes. This means many people believe that all antenatal classes are NCT classes, which is not the case. Happy Parents Happy Baby antenatal classes in Cambridge are not the same as NCT classes in Cambridge, or other antenatal classes in and around Cambridge. Here are some of the differences (as per December 2024).
Our local community
Most people on our Cambridge course are from Cambridge. The course is also popular with people living neighbouring areas of Cambourne, Cottenham and Newmarket.
From walks around historic Cambridge and along the river Cam, to hangouts in the city’s lovely coffee shops and at each other’s houses, graduates from our Cambridge antenatal classes are never short of things to do.
