Know Your Baby's Health
From Just 10 Weeks
Private NIPT testing at MotherScan London. A simple blood test that screens for Down's, Edwards' and Patau's syndromes — safe for you, safe for your baby, with results in as little as 5–7 days.
The Most Advanced Prenatal Screening Available
NIPT (Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing) is a cutting-edge blood test that analyses tiny fragments of your baby's DNA circulating in your bloodstream. Unlike older screening methods, NIPT offers an exceptional level of accuracy — over 99% for Down's syndrome — and can be performed from just 10 weeks of pregnancy.
The test is entirely non-invasive: there is no risk to your pregnancy. A small blood sample is taken from your arm, sent to our specialist laboratory, and results are returned within 5–7 working days. All MotherScan NIPT packages include a Wellbeing Ultrasound Scan to confirm gestational age and your baby's development before the blood draw.
NIPT is not currently offered routinely on the NHS, making private testing the most accessible route for expectant parents who want early, accurate genetic reassurance.
Your sonographer confirms gestational age and baby's wellbeing before the blood test begins.
A small blood sample is taken from your arm — the same as any routine blood test. Completely painless, no preparation required.
Your sample is sent to our accredited specialist laboratory where your baby's cell-free DNA is extracted and analysed.
Your detailed report is sent directly to you. Our team is on hand to answer any questions about your results.
