Who runs the classes?
Meet Sarah
Sarah is one of the midwives who teaches our Milton Keynes antenatal classes. Sarah graduated as a midwife from City University London in 2014 and has worked in all areas of midwifery, from obstetric research to a case-loading home birth team. Sarah has a particular interest in providing individualised and informed care to parents.
In her spare time, Sarah can usually be found out exploring the Bedfordshire countryside with her Cocker Spaniel, Larry. She says
"One of my favourite things about being a midwife is guiding expectant parents through the mountains of information out there to enable you to make best decisions for you and your family. I can't wait to welcome you to the course!"
How does this differ to NCT classes in Milton Keynes?
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 Milton Keynes are priced at £269, compared to prices from £199 for Happy Parents Happy Baby antenatal classes. NCT classes in Milton Keynes are held at Shenley Wood Village whereas our classes take place at The Swan Inn so you can relax and make the most of socialising with your course mates.
Our local Milton Keynes community
Most people on our Milton Keynes course are from Milton Keynes. The course is also popular with people living neighbouring areas of Woburn, Wolverton and Stony Stratford.
From walks around Willen Lake and surrounding countryside, to hangouts in the coffee shops and at each other’s houses, graduates from our Milton Keynes antenatal classes are never short of things to do.
Is it worth it?
“This is such a forward-thinking course. You learn so much from all the different specialists. We didn’t really know many people in our area before taking these classes. Now we’ve got an amazing group of friends right on our doorstep.”
Grace and Gregory, May course
