About Antenatal Courses

NCT Antenatal Classes

We currently run two types of classes, which are: 

  1. Women’s – these classes are predominantly for women with some partner sessions. They are held during the day. Cost of class is £234.00. For more information or booking email nctwwbookings@btinternet.com.

  2. Couples – these classes are predominantly with couples although there are some women only sessions included. The classes are usually held in the evenings with the women only sessions taking place during the day. Occasionally daytime couples classes are also offered. Cost of class is £279.00. For more information or booking For more information or booking email nctwwbookings@btinternet.com.

Both types of classes include a breastfeeding session with one of our trained Breastfeeding Counselors, a post-natal reunion and the first years membership fee to the NCT. If you do not want to join the NCT or are already a member the cost is £39 less.

Please note that the cost of classes may have increased by the time your class starts. If the prices present a financial problem please contact me for details of reduced rates for low income households.

Classes will be arranged to take place towards the end of your pregnancy.

You will be contacted within two weeks to confirm receipt and to advise whether we can offer you a place or whether we have put your name on a waiting list either for a cancellation or because we are waiting for more courses from the tutors. Please be aware we operate on a strictly first come first served policy.

In the meantime, may we suggest that you enroll for the NHS Parent Craft antenatal classes, if available, in the event that we are unable to offer you a place on one of our classes. If you are planning a hospital birth, you may also find it helpful to arrange a visit in order to have a look around the delivery suites and post-natal wards to see what facilities are on offer and meet some of the midwives.
