How does this differ to NCT classes in Bristol?
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 Clifton are not the same as NCT classes in Clifton, or other antenatal classes in and around Clifton. Here are some of the differences (as per December 2024).
