What is course suitability?
Suitability ranks how suitable an NCT Antenatal course is for your baby’s due date – from ideal through to unsuitable. We calculate this by looking at the number of days between the course finishing and your estimated due date. There needs to be enough time so you don’t miss your course, should your baby arrive earlier than planned.
Suitability rankings for our postnatal courses - Early Days courses and Introducing Solid Food workshops - are calculated by looking at your baby's birth date and counting the days until the course begins.
We recommend using suitability rankings, alongside course location, dates and times to find the right course for you. Using suitability rankings does help ensure you’ll attend a course with others whose due dates or birth dates are similar to yours. Feedback tells us parents have a better course experience when this is the case.
