Who runs the classes?

How does this differ to NCT classes in Shrewsbury?

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 Shrewsbury are priced at £269, compared to prices from £199 for Happy Parents Happy Baby antenatal classes. NCT classes in Shrewsbury are held at The Lantern whereas our classes take place in the private room of the Riverbank Bar and Grill so you can relax and socialise with your course mates.

Our local community

Most people on our Shrewsbury course are from Shrewsbury. The course is also popular with people living neighbouring areas of Atcham, Shawbury and Pontesbury.

From walks in Attingham Park and the Quarry Park, to hangouts in the coffee shops and at each other’s houses, graduates from our Shrewsbury antenatal classes are never short of things to do.

Is it worth it?

“This class was really great - our instructor was knowledgeable and delivered lots of useful information in an engaging way. The tone of the course was very modern and open minded to all birth preferences and equipped me well for birth and early parenthood. Also, it attracted a great group of people which were excited to get to know better.”
