Preparing for Parenthood with NCT: The Emotional & Practical Journey

In this episode of The Mama Podcast, host Heidi Eldridge chats with Sally Parkin and Catherine Walker from NCT to explore what today’s parents really need as they prepare for birth and life with a new baby.We go beyond the antenatal basics, from emotional readiness and mental health to practical baby care, inclusivity, and what it truly means to feel supported as a parent. Discover how NCT’s courses and services are evolving to meet the diverse realities of modern families, and why it’s so much more than just “birth prep.”Whether you're pregnant, parenting, or supporting someone who is, this is a warm, honest, and empowering conversation you won’t want to miss.
