Who runs the classes?

Meet Alice.

Alice is one of the midwives that teaches our courses in North Oxford and Thame. Alice graduated from Oxford Brookes University. She says, "I'm so looking forward to welcoming you to the course and sharing the knowledge that I hope will set you up for success in this exciting next chapter of your lives."

 

How does this differ to NCT classes in Thame?

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 Thame are not the same as NCT classes in Thame, or other antenatal classes in and around Thame. Here are some of the differences (as per December 2024).

 

Our local community

Most people on our Thame course are from Thame. The course is also popular with people living neighbouring areas of Haddenham, Shabbington and Long Crendon.

From walks in Cuttlebrook Nature Reserve and the surrounding countryside, to hangouts in the coffee shops and at each other’s houses, graduates from our Thame antenatal classes are never short of things to do.
