Which package should I pick?
The cost of cord blood banking will vary depending on the bundle you want. Most of our customers choose the Platinum package, which gives you access to our unique CellsPlus technology, giving you 2-3x more cells than other cord blood processing systems available in the UK.
Give our specialist advisers a call on 01444 873950 if you would like to customise your plan, and they will calculate the cost for you.
Depending on the hospital you are using, your collection could be performed by your consultant or you may require a specially trained cord blood phlebotomist. There is an additional cost for the phlebotomy service of £300.

What is an Access Plan?
Everyone should be able to store their baby’s stem cells, which is why we don’t want cost to be a barrier when you are deciding if you will bank their cord blood, tissue, or more. Our Access Plans have been designed to make our cord blood banking even more affordable, with prices starting from as little as £550.
Can I keep my placenta after birth?
The simple answer is yes and there are a few options. Some will choose to consume it in pill form or in smoothies, and some keep it for personal reasons. You can also choose to privately store your placenta to keep the precious stem cells. It’s an incredibly useful organ during your pregnancy and can continue to be useful even after birth. Cells4Life can store this valuable resource for you as a safety net for your baby and family.
