"Truly fantastic Antenatal course! This course really had a focus on building social relationships and we have had a great time getting to know the other members of the course. I loved all the topics covered, especially baby first aid. The sessions that walked us through our birth plan and explained in details what all the medical interventions entailed helpe..." Read more

"My husband and I did the HPHB course when we moved to the area and were expecting our 3rd child. It was a well structured and informative series of classes, with a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. It was great to meet people locally and we (and our babies!) are still friends today. I would thoroughly recommend."

"We really enjoyed taking the course, not just because of all the expertise and advice we received, but also the sense of community we felt with the rest of the likeminded parents-to-be. It’s NCT with a difference - the difference being that it’s run by qualified professionals; obstetricians, midwives and paediatricians. We’re so glad we chose to take these..." Read more

"HPHB is a fantastic course and, in my opinion, it’s the best antenatal course offering out there. It covers things you actually want to know about like baby first aid, newborn care and birth interventions led by a qualified obstetrician. The breastfeeding workshop was more than the cursory chat you get in other antenatal courses and it proved invaluable to m..." Read more

"An absolutely fantastic parenting course! Went into it knowing a little, came out knowing a lot and totally prepared for my little ones arrival. The range of experts was brilliant and meant you could ask really specific questions of them. The guys running it are really lovely and experienced parents themselves as well as experts in the field. I would highly..." Read more

"Really recommend for any new parents. Covers all the essentials when it comes to birthing and caring for a newborn, plus hypnobirthing and first aid, so it's great value for money when you compare it to other courses. What also sets HPHB apart is that the course leaders are doctors so you get a really thorough run through of all the info you need to know. I..." Read more

"As first time parents we wanted something more than just the bog standard NCT classes. With HPHB you get classes taught by actual doctors and experts in their field of study instead of the ‘take a course to teach a course’ approach by NCT. You get food and drink while doing the courses and the organisers are always at hand to message if you have any question..." Read more

"We signed up to HPHB as we wanted to do an antenatal class and loved that this was focused around being sociable and also included things like baby first aid and hypnobirthing. It is run by experts in their field which gave absolute piece of mind. Pregnancy after loss is tough, but the course ensured we felt in control of what we could, but confident about..." Read more

"It's been almost two years since my husband and I took part in HPHB but we still look back fondly at the experience. We were recommended HPHB by my sister, an obstetrician/gynaecologist who knows the founders well. We couldn't have been happier with the content the class provided, the support we felt from the HPHB team, and the friends we made. Even though w..." Read more

"We found the HPHB to have everything we wanted from an ante-natal course. All the experts were fantastic and we loved that it included both hypnobirthing and first aid. By the end of the course we felt prepared to have our first baby and we we’re empowered to make the choices we made, but had enough knowledge to understand changes that inevitably happen alon..."

"We were torn whether we wanted to attend a traditional antenatal course or a hypnobirthing course, so the main draw was this covered both. I did not have a straight forward birthing experience in the end and I think I would have been very stressed and worried throughout, instead it was still a positive experience because I was equipped with so much informati..."

"Absolutely amazing class that really set us up with all the information we needed (and even stuff we didn’t know we needed) ready for the birth and beyond of our son. Run in an informal friendly way, we were made to feel comfortable and able to ask any questions that crossed our mind. Really could not recommend enough and not only were all of our questions..."

"I can't recommend HPHB enough. I didn't realize how much I didn't know. Fran,Will and the rest of the team are so knowledgeable and excellent teachers. The sessions were fun we and walked away feeling much more confident about being first time parents."

"We chose Happy Parents Happy Baby because it was the only antenatal course lead by medical professionals. We absolutely loved it and have made life long friends from it. We can’t rate Happy Parents Happy Baby highly enough for realistically preparing us for labour, birth, the first few months of parenthood and of course for connecting us to the most amazi..."

"We loved the HPHB course! Really useful & informative content, great locations & great social aspect to it too. The WhatsApp group has been invaluable for support & friendship - 16 months on us HPHB mums regularly chat & meet up with our babies, I’d be lost without them & will forever be grateful for HPHB bringing us all together!"
