There are a lot of things to take into consideration when choosing the perfect double buggy from birth (Highly recommended Web-site). Katie Billingsley, a postnatal retreat expert from the Fourth Trimester, gave us her tips on everything from seating options and age groups, to folding mechanisms and storage.

A must-have purchase for families with active children This buggy will grow with your family from twins to toddlers. It is light, has great maneuverability and can maneuver through uneven terrain easily.

What type of buggy do you want?

A small double buggy buggy is perfect for transporting two children, not necessarily of the same age, side by side. They can also function as prams. Each seat is equipped with a reclining mechanism so that your children can lie down or sit in different positions. A lot of them have plenty of storage space for everything from snacks and drinks to wipes and nappies. They are often lightweight that folds easily and are compact enough to fit into the car boot. If you travel a lot amount, you should ensure that the twin buggy can be easily moved with the folded wheels in your car boot and removed.

The most well-known type of double buggy is the side by side, which you've probably seen on other mums pushchairs, or perhaps ridden in as a child yourself. They are perfect for twins or older siblings who want to keep up with you. They also come in various seating configurations, including 'cinema seats'. They're usually easy to steer and, if you decide to go for a model with soft suspension, they can be a breeze to get rid of kerbs.

tandem double buggy buggies, which are more simple to turn than side-by sides, are also very popular. This is because the second seat is positioned behind the first one, rather than over it. The seats are usually larger and heavier than a side-by-side however, so make sure that they will fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used for twins or a toddler and baby or three kids with the inclusion of a buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single-to-double' 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 tend to be more expensive than side-by-sides and tandem buggies, but they offer a lot of flexibility and have a great price for resales. They are easy to steer and come with a large storage basket. They also have the ability to handle uneven surfaces. Some models even come with built-in ride-on boards and cinema seating for your child's older.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the best lightweight double stroller way to transport your children, regardless of whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two types of double buggies: tandem buggies, where one child is seated above the other, and side-byside buggies. Both buggies can be fitted with two fixed seats. However, side-by-side buggies are narrower to fit through doors. Tandems tend to be more spacious overall. They can also accommodate a toddler seat and a carrycot.

Do you have a baby?

Being a parent to a child can be a big responsibility initially, particularly when you need to be attentive to the infant. A double buggy can help them to feel a sense of belonging if you put them in a baby carrier and push the older child. It can also give your child the feeling of pride that comes with knowing that they are able to be 'big brother or sister' and help them get used to their new role.

Side-by-side double buggies are usually considered the best option for twins as they allow both children to have the same view, however they can be bulky and heavy. We love the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE by Leclerc that features an innovative frame that expands the width to accommodate two seats fixed and provides various configuration options, such as using the second seat as a bassinet or infant carrier.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who like to explore. This clever buggy is a single pushchair which can be made a double by adding a second seat or carrycot (depending on the model). Its super-smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain and it has lots of thoughtful features to keep everyone comfortable.

Do you need a travel system?

Double 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 get by with just one stroller and some attachments like baby straps and toddler carriers that permit your child and you to be able to travel on their backs, or in front.

If you decide to go with a double buggy, there are three types to choose from: side by side, tandem and convertible. The two seats are positioned in a row, so that your children can see each other. They are larger than a single stroller and may be difficult to maneuver over kerbs. Tandem buggies offer a more compact alternative, with a single seat in the front and a second in the rear, however they are still heavy and long to push.

Convertible double buggies are great because they allow you to convert your stroller into a dual buggy by simply attaching an infant bassinet or car seat to the frame. You can leave your child in the car seat until she is ready to move up into the buggy seat. The UPPAbaby V2 is a good example - it can be used with twins, a toddler and a baby or even three children with the optional PiggyBack Board.

When your children get older and more mobile, you can use a double buggy to accompany them to bicycle rides or for day trips where they might prefer to walk. It's important to remember that your children might not always be comfortable in a stroller and might be tired and irritable when they are on longer excursions.

Before you invest in a double stroller, think about the factors mentioned above and your family's unique situation. A sturdy and reliable double stroller can make life much easier especially if you need to navigate through busy streets or overcrowded shopping centers.
