You won't believe some of the differences
At Babes in the Womb, we have spent many years perfecting what we believe to be the very best Ultrasound Scanning Clinic in our field, not just in Scotland but the whole of the UK.
We make this claim by relentless researching of our competitors and making sure that every single part of our business stands out and shines from everyone else. Please find below some of the differences we offer, from not just the local clinics to us, but ALL other companies in this field.
Whether you are having a Dating scan, Gender scan or one of our 4D Scans, it is important to make sure there is a generous amount fo time, to not only get the best results, but also the very best experience from your ultrasound scan. Babies will not always be in ideal positions and therefore it's important that the Sonographer has ample time within the appointment to try their very best for you.
Look at the examples of just how long our competitors are allocating to their scan appointments:
SHORTEST APPOINTMENT
Babes in the womb All Other Local Companies (including ABC4D - BABY BOND ULTRASOUND DIRECT - PERTH BABY SCAN STUDIO)
15 Minutes 10 Minutes
LONGEST 4D APPOINTMENT

45 minutes 20 minutes
Every company offers pictures, they're a fantastic keep sake from your scan. However there are numerous printers that can be used, and with numerous running costs to the company. One of the cheaper printers favoured with private companies is the low running cost thermal printer similar to what the hospital will use. The pictures come off a roll like a till receipt, they are very thin and floppy and are much more difficult to protect from damage. Even heat will distort/destroy them, therefore laminating them is out the question. The more expensive option is a much higher grade thermal printer that uses a special glossy card like material. This is many times the price of the cheaper option, however gives the very best pictures aceiveable in Ultrasound Baby Scanning.

DVD's are another favorite keep sake from you baby scan. All companies record and make their clients DVD's a very similar way. All, except Babes in the Womb. Our DVD's are entirely incomparable to ANY companie in the UK. Our DVD's take around 2 hours to make and look like a finished and polished personlised film. Complete with many extra's like music, special effects, baby's heartbeat audio syncronised to baby's heart beating on the scan, plus much more. This as you can imagine is a far more expensive way to make our clients DVD's. However the finished result is without comparison, the very best you will see...anywhere.

Whether you are sharing the experience of you private baby scan with friends/family or just the minimal amount of people. You want to feel relaxed, comfortable with your surroundings and pampared. Many clinics boost to have luxury clinics, when in fact few of them show any pictures the inside of their clinics and many of them rent rooms from an existing business that is already operating. Babes in the Womb have only ever operated premises that they soley have the use of and have paid for professionals to help with the design of their clinics, to provide a genuine relaxing, clean and luxury clinic you would be happy to visit. Our clinics come with children play area's, fresh cold spring water, coffees/teas (of many different varieties) and a generous selection of biscuits/cakes, all completely free. In sumary you won't find a clinic even close to the luxury we have at Babes in the Womb.
Although absolutely nobody's fault, babies will sometimes be in poor positions, and this can be reflected in the results acheived from the scan. Babes in the Womb, will go that extra mile to make sure we get the best for you, which is why each and every scan comes with a repeat promise should we not get the disired results first time.
