About Window to the Womb
As one of the UK’s leading obstetric scanning providers, we are proud to offer our families outstanding care throughout your pregnancy journey. Our clinics offer a range of private ultrasound scans and obstetric services from as early as 6 weeks right up to 42 weeks gestation. With 50+ clinics across the UK, we are proud to make our services easily accessible to families, whatever their needs/concerns.
Our scans range from early reassurance, gender confirmation, 4D, growth and general well-being to suit all needs. The health and well-being of Mum & baby are our main priority, and all our scans provide a fetal well-being report with findings for you to take home. Many of our scan packages also include extras such as prints, movie recordings, gender reveal items and more.
In addition to our obstetric ultrasound scans, Window to the Womb also offers early prenatal testing from just 10 weeks and early blood testing for gender confirmation from just 7 weeks. All our blood tests are taken at our clinic locations by a member of our phlebotomy team, with the aim of providing you with safe, convenient, and fast access to these services.
Our appointments can be booked online via our website 24/7, or you can call to speak to someone about your requirements. We will aim to gather as much information as possible about your specific needs/requirements for whichever service in order to provide you with the very best care.

Your sonographer will conduct a limited diagnostic check as part of your fetal health and well-being scan. These checks are completed in less than 5 minutes and are not as detailed as your 20-week anomaly scan, which takes around 25-30 minutes. We are only able to check for a limited number of conditions which are displayed in our Fetal Ultrasound Policy within our clinics. You must attend your NHS antenatal ultrasound scans to ensure you are screened for a much more extensive list of conditions.
A fully qualified member of our phlebotomy team will take your blood sample.
Once the blood draw is taken your sample will be sent to our lab for testing. Please allow up to 7 days for your results to come back. Should there be any concerns a member of the team will discuss your next steps.
You need to be 16 or over to have a scan or blood test with us. Those aged 16 and 17 must attend with a responsible adult or guardian.
