How does this differ to NCT classes in Cardiff?
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 Cardiff are not the same as NCT classes in Cardiff, or other antenatal classes in and around Cardiff. Here are some of the differences (as per December 2024).
Our local community
Most of the people coming on our Cardiff course are from Cardiff. The course is also popular with those living in neighbouring areas of Penarth, Barry and Newport.
From walks around the bay to coffee meetings in the city centre and playdates at each other’s houses, graduates from our Cardiff antenatal classes are never short of things to do together.
