Get ready for parenthood with an antenatal class from NCT, the UK's leading charity for pregnancy, birth, infant feeding and early parenthood.
Meet other parents around Bristol to share experiences and offer support. Many NCT groups are still in touch years later.
Course leaders are trained at university level and will share the latest evidence-based parenting information, so you can make informed decisions, whatever the circumstances.
We'll cover different types of pregnancy and birth experiences, as well as adjusting to life as a new parent, with information about feeding, sleep, relationships, and more.
Enjoy in-person and online course options, plus a digital Parent Hub for at-home learning. If you miss a class, we offer a free catch-up session.
We keep groups to a maximum of 18 people to allow you to connect with other parents and share in-depth discussions on what each topic means for you.
We welcome all parents, whatever your circumstances and however you're having your family. Our course fee covers you and your partner, family member, or friend.
I really enjoyed the course, discussions with the group and teacher were relaxed and non-judgemental. We met a great group of other new parents and feel much more prepared to become parents.
Our NCT course exceeded my expectations. I was worried that it might be old-fashioned or would push a particular agenda. In fact, our course facilitator was friendly, passionate, supportive and non-judgemental. She asked us what we wanted to learn from the course and it really felt like it was tailored to our preferences as a group, with a really good balance of birth and post-birth topics. I learnt a lot, left feeling more confident and having met other soon-to-be parents that I hope will remain friends for a long time!
I booked on quite last minute in a panic as the NHS course I was booked onto was cancelled. I’m so glad I got to attend the NCT classes. Everything was explained in a much more detailed and unhurried way. There was no judgement, for example we got information on both breastfeeding and bottle feeding. There was a lot of information on decisions we had to make that we didn’t know about but also how to look after ourselves as well as the baby. To top it all off we got to meet eight other lovely couples that will hopefully become great friends in the future as our little ones grow!
Join a friendly, supportive group that's just the right size for asking questions and building real connections.
Together you'll explore and discuss everything from labour, birth, feeding, caring for your baby and the early days of parenthood through several flexible sessions.

Looking a little further ahead? If you can’t see a course that works for you yet, don’t worry - we’re still planning upcoming dates. Join the waiting list and we’ll notify you as soon as they’re ready to book.
You can contact us through web chat on this page or take a look at our answers to frequently asked questions.
We use your expected due date to determine how suitable a class is for you.
Ideally we want the class to end 3-7 weeks before you're due, but that can be expanded to 2-9 weeks. You will see classes marked as ideal, good, ok and not suitable in the results.
Other personal factors you should consider are:
We allow a max of 18 people (up to 9 pairs), but on average it’s 10 to 14 people. We keep our groups small, so there’s more time to connect, ask questions and get to know each other.
We can't tell you exactly what will be taught in each session because the number and length of sessions can differ between scheduled courses, and your course leader will tailor the content to the needs of the group.
We can tell you that all our courses will cover topics within the following key themes:
We encourage you to book a class where you can make all sessions, as we can't move you into a session in a different class.
Depending on circumstances, we can offer you an online replacement session that will cover one of the five core themes. See our terms and conditions for details.
We understand things don’t always go to plan. You can cancel a booking within 14 days of confirmation without charge. There’s also options for changing your booking. Find out more about cancellation and refunds.
Absolutely. We want to make our courses accessible to all. Please let us know in advance if you have specific accessibility requirements - you can get in touch with us via email at booking.support@nct.org.uk, web chat or by calling 0300 330 0700 (option 2).
Interest-free instalments are available when there is enough time to have monthly instalments between the booking date and the start of the class - this will be indicated on the class when you search.
We offer discounts to households earning less than £35,000 per year. Find out more about our class discounts and eligibility.
To request a discount, find the course you want to attend, select 'show payment & discount information' and then 'check eligibility & apply'.
We regularly hold online classes for people who want to attend an NCT Antenatal class but:
Yes! As part of your class, you'll get access to our NCT Parent Hub, an exclusive digital content platform, where you'll find evidenced-based articles, informative videos and links to useful resources all together in one place to support your learning.
