Happy Parents. Happy Baby. Antenatal Classes Reviews 

Happy parents, happy baby was the perfect fit for us as first time parents! With a carefully curated curriculum, we felt empowered and informed before heading into the world of newborn life. Knowing all of the resources are still available online for us to refer back to has helped put my mind at ease during those moments where (inevitably) we found ourselves asking questions!
Best of all, we have formed a community of like-minded new parents.

My husband and I really enjoyed the HPHB antenatal classes. The instructor made them fun and engaging while also making sure we were confident with all of the content. The weekly online webinars and extra video tutorials were extremely useful and great to go back over. The practical element to the weekly in person sessions was very useful; we would definitely have struggled had we not done this course.
It was lovely to meet lots of other couples due to have their babies at a similar time to us and we will meet up with them at the reunion in January and hopefully stay in touch beyond that.
My mum has even done the grandparents course!

These classes were really informative for all aspects of birth and baby and it has been lovely to have a group of local mum and dad friends! The midwives running the course had a wealth of knowledge and it was great to have an informal atmosphere to ask as many questions as we wanted, alongside other nervous new parents! Highly recommend!

We were in the Tonbridge September cohort and we loved our time with HPHB! We felt the online material was useful, the in-person 2 hour weekly sessions very detailed and fun! We are new to the area so also a great opportunity to meet new friends :) thanks HPHB for facilitating great workshops!

My partner and I found the whole HPHB experience extremely helpful as we prepared to become new parents. The classes and videos were super helpful and our instructor made each session fun but informative. We now feel ready to take on what lies ahead and have a wonderful group of other parents to share it with. I’d recommend HPHB to anyone expecting a little one.

We had such a brilliant experience with Happy Parents Happy Baby! Our teacher, Bex was absolutely fantastic, incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. She answered every question we had and made the sessions super informative without ever feeling overwhelming.

The activities were great for getting to know other parents-to-be, and we’ve actually kept in touch with everyone from our group - we still meet up regularly! It’s been such a lovely way to build a support network of people going through the same stage of life.

I’d recommend Happy Parents Happy Baby to anyone looking for a warm, supportive, and genuinely helpful antenatal class.

A brilliant course that covered a wide range of topics to help prepare for baby’s arrival! The classes were engaging and informative, with a relaxed but professional approach. It was a great opportunity to meet other local families. Helped my husband and I feel more prepared and supported.

We really enjoyed our HPHB course. It was informative, unbiased and a great way to meet lots of other lovely parents to be in our area. We would have liked a session or two more but all the extra videos and live sessions were really useful.

Our classes were fantastic, very informative but also hands on and fun. Heather our midwife was super friendly and helped us all settle in and learn all the practical elements but also introduced us to all the other amazing parents to be. We’ve made a wonderful group of friends and a support network thanks to these classes.
Definitely recommend!

I would give 10 stars if I could. As first time parents we really were in the dark when it came to becoming new parents. HPHB not only gave us the practical information but also the opportunity to ask all the questions we had. The sessions are brilliantly planned and thought through, have brilliant experts to hand along the way, cover all the areas you need to make you feel empowered to make the choices you need to make along this crazy journey. We also liked they are held in nice pubs, makes it feel a little less daunting. Thank you for giving us the best start to parenthood!

I should start by saying that the midwife that ran our class was fantastic. Very knowledgeable, very kind, happy to answer any questions, she was brilliant.

The online portal is also good.

The issue we had was with the company and how it sets up the classes. We had 16 couples in our class which was way too many.

You didn’t actually get chance to know anyone because you never spent any time with the same couple. There weren’t enough materials provided for this number either - in a group exercise of three couples, we only had one worksheet for various exercises which could’ve been okay but, because of the group size, we had no time to actually share the worksheet.

The final issue was the “celebration” where it turns out they hadn’t actually booked somewhere for us, they had just announced a location for us to turn up at and sort out.

If the class size was halved, the classes could’ve been great, I just wish HPHB had prioritised the parent’s experience over money.

We had a very good experience with Happy Parents Happy Baby. As a gay couple doing surrogacy (so a different pregnancy journey than most), we originally weren't sure if we would feel out of place, but we have felt so included by everyone. Our midwife instructor was so kind and knowledgeable, and we were really happy that the class included infant CPR. We've just welcomed our son into the world a few days ago and we've already put much of what we learned into use! And we're looking forward to continuing to benefit from the community that HPHB has helped us to form.

Very knowledgeable teachers, a real breadth of need-to-know information covered and loved the use of interactive tasks too, which not only helped you learn essential skills like baby CPR, but meet other parents-to-be.

Super please we did this course. To feel prepared has helped me relax in the pregnancy, and not to mention all the cool local people we have met in our city! The midwife who lead our group was also fantastic. 100% reccomend.

I would highly recommend the HPHB course. It was very informative and interesting, and really well organised. All the speakers were great, as were the online resources. It was a really good balance between learning and also the social aspect of meeting lots of other nice parents to be.

We’d heard great things about Happy Parents Happy Baby and are so glad we signed up. The course was incredibly informative and gave us real confidence as we prepare to become first-time parents. We chose it over other options because it covered everything we were looking for – baby first aid, hypnobirthing, and ongoing access to helpful online videos. One of the best parts has been meeting other local parents-to-be. Now that our babies are arriving, the WhatsApp group has been absolutely invaluable for sharing tips, advice, and support. Highly recommend!

My husband and I loved the HPHB antenatal classes! We found the classes to be fun, informative, and engaging. The midwife Lucy who ran the classes was amazing! The classes were really hands-on, and we both learned so much that made us feel much more confident and prepared for this new and exciting chapter. The group atmosphere was lovely as well. We met some great people and made new friends. The end-of-course social was such a nice touch as well! We’d highly recommend the HPHB classes to any expectant parents looking for a friendly, supportive, and enjoyable learning experience.

My husband and I did the September course; we loved the sound of the course content which covered all the major topics we had an interest in. The course was so much more informative and social that we expected; everyone was able to participate and ask questions and get hands on with the tasks which made it really fun. Jess, who took our course, had such passion and energy, and was a fantastic resource throughout - she really made the evenings fun and enjoyable. The online portal of information and access to the additional Q&As has been really valuable, and allowed us to go back over certain topics as the big day approaches!
HPHB have a really good focus on social interactions and joining together new parents which has been great, we've got a really supportive WhatsApp group and some of the girls have met up a couple of times to talk all things impending motherhood!
All in all, we’ve really enjoyed being part of the HPHB course, and feel much more equipped taking this him into parenthood!

Really useful class for all things baby! My wife and I thought they were informative and helpful in a friendly and professional environment. Jess, who took the class was fantastic, energetic and always had time to explain points and answer questions.

A great way to meet people at the same stage of pregnancy so you have an immediate network of sharing and friendship.

Highly recommend!!

Great content, both in the classes and the videos on the portal - hugely informative and the perfect tone encouraging personal choice :) Olivia the teacher was so warm, friendly, up for answering all and every question! Great to have a social element built in so we could connect with the other couples and it’s allowed us to form a support network already. Highly recommend.
