Hertford, Ware & District

Welcome to the Hertford, Ware & District NCT. Run voluntarily by local parents for local parents, our branch offers friendship, support and information to families living in Hertford, Ware and surrounding villages.

Whether you're expecting for the first time or already have children, Hertford, Ware & District NCT has something for you:

What's on

For those expecting a baby, we have antenatal and refresher courses. As well as helping you prepare for your new arrival, they are a great opportunity to meet other NCT members in your area who are having a baby the same time as you. Our Bumps & Babes groups are also fantastic for getting to know other mums or mums-to-be whose babies are the same age as yours. These are informal groups made up of local NCT members who meet regularly to make friends, share experiences and offer each other support. We also arrange Home Birth Support Meetings for pregnant women who are considering choosing to have their babies at home.

Baby in a red nappy

For parents whose little ones have arrived, our regular Open House groups are perfect for meeting new people, and entertaining for both grown-ups and children. If you aren’t part of an antenatal group or a Bumps & Babes group, do come along, as it's the perfect opportunity to meet other families. We offer a support group for Lone Parents and would love to meet you if you'd like to join us.

We hold regular Nearly New Sales. Our last Sale was on Saturday 21 April 2012 and it was a very successful event. We can't wait to do it again!

Volunteering

Our branch is run solely by volunteers and we are always looking for parents who can use their talents and a little of their time to help us to continue to ensure that local families have access to the valuable resources offered by the NCT. We’d love to hear from you if you can help, even for a couple of hours once a month.

We'd like to hold a Teddy Bears' Picnic in July instead of our usual Cheeky Monkey's Party. We currently have no events manager or events team for the Hertford, Ware & District Branch. Can you help to plan and run this event for the branch? We have a super venue provisionally booked but without a team to organise the picnic, we will have to cancel this fundraiser this year. No experience is required - just good ideas and enthusiasm! Contact ncthertfordware@googlemail.com if you can help.

Info and For Hire

In addition to organising social and fundraising events, our branch also offers support in other ways. Members receive our quarterly branch newsletter, Completely Potty, which has up-to-date information about the services and events run by the branch, along with helpful and entertaining articles about childbirth and parenting.

It doesn't stop there: we have a bra-fitting service. We can help you hire a birth pool. We hire out hospital-grade breast pumps and Valley cushions. And we give information and help on breastfeeding, including advice on local cafes, etc that are breastfeeding friendly.
