Best website to use for benefit calculation?

Hello! Just wondering which sites people use to calculate their benefits. I’m due to go off on maternity in December I have used the turn2us calculator and it’s given me a largely different figure to one I used called gingerbread and I actually rang them and spoke with someone who gave me a different figure to what I got using the online Gingerbread calculator.
I’m wanting to move house I currently live in a 1 bed tiny house so I want to ensure that I can afford my rent and bills on maternity pay and whatever benefits I get on top of that but also the switch to universal credit is confusing me because surely I won’t be able to claim income support it will be universal credit.

I am currently working full time and am planning on returning to work part time

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Hi OP didn't wanna read and leave.
I've found in past ( I'm on uc) none of them are really correct, I found out correct amount when I went to my first appointment Sorry couldn't be much help

No problem thank you for your post. Do you think I’m better ringing them to ask beforehand

You can but wont really help as you are working each month u will get a different amount as it depends on cut of dates when u get paid and how much,so it's hit and miss each month as dates cross over.
