These have always been the cornerstone of the NCT's activities, and are very popular.

Courses cover all aspects of birth from methods of relaxation to common obstetric procedures, though each course is tailored to cover all areas of interest to those attending.

Classes usually run for 8 evening or weekend sessions taken during the last three months of pregnancy.

Groups are kept small to provide a friendly relaxed atmosphere, partners are encouraged to attend and many groups are still in contact long after their children are born.

Classes are often filled up quickly, so book early to avoid disappointment!

As with all NCT teachers and counsellors, our antenatal teachers have undergone thorough training with the NCT, though they are not required to be medically qualified. All are expected to keep up to date with the latest developments in maternity care and must register with the NCT each year. Their role is to offer support, information, practical skills and resources to help parents make informed choices for themselves and their babies. They do not offer medical advice and parents are asked to take any questions about medical care to their midwife, health visitor or doctor.
