Working with NCT

About us

Since 1956, NCT has been dedicated to improving the lives of parents.

We are the largest parenting charity in the country and over the decades we’ve supported millions of people on their unique journey into parenthood.

While many know us for our antenatal classes, we also do much more. We campaign on issues that matter to parents, provide infant feeding support, and run thousands of free community events and activities led by our amazing volunteers. We also support families facing challenges like social isolation, feeding difficulties, and poor mental health. We offer support in communities, in hospitals, online and over the phone. We’re here for parents 365 days a year.

When you work with NCT, you’re working towards building a society where every parent feels confident, connected and safe. 

Why work with us?

• Impactful work: Every role contributes to supporting parents and makes a real difference to their lives.
• Collaborative culture: We value trust, inclusion, and teamwork.
• Professional growth: Opportunities to learn, develop, and thrive.

Our values – Why they matter

We work with empathy, integrity, collaboration, and inclusivity to create a culture of trust and respect. These values help us communicate openly, solve challenges together, and celebrate success. By living our values, we build strong teams and deliver better outcomes for the parents and communities we support.

• Welcoming: We are always welcoming, creating connections and building communities.
• Collaborative: We achieve better outcomes by working together.
• Inclusive: We ensure equity and inclusion are core to who we are and what we do.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI)

NCT is committed to social justice and equity. We are dedicated to being an anti-racist charity and believe that inclusion is everyone's responsibility. Being there for every parent requires bold action to challenge inequalities. By creating inclusive spaces and services that are built on collaboration and trust, we welcome and celebrate diversity and strive to meet the needs of the pregnant women, new parents, families and communities that we serve.

At NCT, inclusion is everyone’s responsibility. We are committed to:

• Increasing diversity: Actively working to represent all communities.
• Zero discrimination: Regardless of sex, sexual orientation, age, race, ethnicity, disability, religion, gender identity, or economic class.
• Inclusive recruitment: Accessible processes and reasonable adjustments for all candidates.
• Encouraging applications: Especially from under-represented groups, including Black, Asian, and minority ethnic communities, LGBTQI+ individuals, and people with disabilities.
• Safeguarding: The welfare and safety of children and adults is at the heart of everything we do.
