How does this differ to NCT classes in Northampton?
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 Northampton are not the same as NCT classes in Northampton, or other antenatal classes in and around Northampton. Here are some of the differences (as per December 2024).
Our local community
Most people on our Northampton course are from Northampton. The course is also popular with people living neighbouring areas of Wellingborough, Daventry and Towcester.
