NCT Courses for parents

We’ve been running NCT courses for new and expectant parents for over 50 years and we support over 80,000 new parents each year.

The course finder below shows NCT courses with spaces available. The earlier you enquire the more likely we can offer you a choice of course. If you are over 28 weeks pregnant and/or can't find what you are looking for, please contact us on 0300 330 0700 (Monday to Friday, 9am-5pm).

Course types

Our courses are based on evidence, not opinion. NCT practitioners train for at least 3 years, and update their skills every year.  You will find a warm welcome, emotional and practical help and meet some new friends along the way.

NCT antenatal courses help you work out how to approach labour, practice birthing positions and breathing, as well as parenting skills.

Our postnatal courses aim to help you feel more confident and suported in your new life as a parent.
