Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

When it comes to choosing the ideal double buggy, there are plenty of aspects to consider. We spoke with Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options and age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.

This buggy is a must-have for active families. It grows with you and your family, from twins to toddlers. It's lightweight and movable, and can handle uneven terrain easily.

What type of buggy would you like?

A double buggy is great for transporting two children, not necessarily of the same age, side by side. They can also serve as prams, and they have recline mechanisms within each seat, allowing your children can sit or lie down in various positions. They're often spacious enough to store everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. They are usually light they fold easily and are compact enough to fit in the car boot. If you travel a significant amount, it's essential to check that the buggy can be easily maneuvered with the folded wheels in your boot and taken out.

You may have seen this kind of double buggy on other mums strollers or even in one as a kid. They're great for twins or older siblings who want to keep up with you. They also come in a variety of seating configurations such as 'cinema seats'. They are usually simple to steer, and if you opt for a model with a soft suspension, they are able to easily handle the kerbs.

Tandem buggies are also a popular option since they're easier to turn than a side-by-side. The second seat is positioned behind the first rather than on top. They're generally larger than a side-by-side, and can be bulky when folded, so it's important to check they'll fit through doors and on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler, an infant or three children with the addition of an additional best twin buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single-to-double pram stroller (click the following page)' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They're more expensive than tandem buggies or side-byside buggies, but they offer the flexibility of a single buggie and have a high cost of resale. They are easy to steer and come with an ample storage basket. They are also able to handle uneven surfaces. Some even have built-in ride-on boards and 'cinema seating' for your older child.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the best compact double stroller method to transport your children, whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two types of double buggies: tandem buggies which have one child sitting over the other, and side by side buggies. Both can be fitted with two fixed seats, but side-byside buggies tend to be smaller in size to fit through doors. Tandems tend to be wider overall. They can also be able to accommodate a toddler seat and a carrycot.

Do you have a toddler?

Having a younger sibling can feel like quite an overwhelming responsibility at first, especially when you need to be attentive to the infant. A double buggy can also help children to feel included when you place them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It will also help your child get into their new role of a 'big sister or brother'.

The side-by-side double buggies could be a good option for twins, since each child will get the same view. However they're heavy and heavy. We love the streamlined B-AGILE DOUBLE by Leclerc that features an innovative frame that opens the width to accommodate two seats fixed. It also offers different configuration options, including using the second seat as an infant carrier or bassinet.

Alternatively, we recommend an alternative, the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer for families who love to explore. This clever buggy can start as an individual pushchair, but is then convertible into a double, taking the place of a second seat or carrycot, or car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it features many thoughtful features that will ensure that everyone is happy.

Do you require an effective travel system for your business?

double running stroller buggies are a great way to transport your children in a comfortable way. However, they are not necessary for every family. You may be able make do with a single stroller, and some attachments such as baby carriers and toddler straps that permit your child and you to travel on their backs or in the front.

If you choose to purchase a double buggy there are three types to choose from: side by side, tandem and convertible. Side-by-side buggies come with two seats next to each other, which means your children will be able to see each other. They are larger than a single stroller, and can be difficult to maneuver over the kerbs. Tandem buggies are a compact option, with one seat at the front and a second one at the back. However, they can be heavy and lengthy to push.

Convertible double buggies allow you to convert one stroller into double buggy by attaching an infant car seat to the frame. You can keep your child in the car seat until she is ready to grow double stroller to move into the buggy seat. The Uppababy V2 is an excellent illustration - it could be used with twins, a toddler and one or more children with the option of a PiggyBack Board.

Once your children are older and have more endurance, a double buggy can also be used to accompany them on bike rides or day trips where they might prefer walking. It is important to keep in mind that your children might not always like to be in a stroller and might become tired and disgruntled on longer outings.

Before you invest in a double stroller, take into consideration the factors above and your family's unique situation. Having a sturdy and reliable double stroller will simplify your life especially if you need to travel through busy streets or bustling shopping centres.
