Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

There are a lot of things to consider when selecting the perfect double buggy from the time of birth. We spoke to Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options, age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.

This buggy is a must-have for active families. It will grow with you and your family from toddlers to twins. It is light with great maneuverability and can handle uneven terrain with ease.

What type of buggy do you want?

Double buggys are perfect for transporting up to two children at once even if they're not of the same age. They can be used as prams, and they have a reclining mechanism in each seat, so your children can lie down in various positions. They're often spacious enough to store everything from snacks and drinks to nappies and wipes. They are usually light they fold easily and are small enough to fit in your car boot. If you travel a significant amount, you should check that the buggy can be easily pushed around with the wheels folded in your car boot and removed.

The most popular type of double buggy is the side-byside that you've probably seen on other mums pushchairs, or perhaps ridden in as a kid. They're great for twins or older siblings who want to keep up with you. They also come in various seating configurations and styles, including 'cinema chairs'. They're usually easy to steer and, if you decide to go for a model that has soft suspension, make light work of the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are more simple to turn than side-by-sides are also very popular. This is due to the fact that the second seat sits behind the first one, rather than over it. The seats are generally larger and heavier than a traditional side by side, so you should check whether they are able to pass through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler, an infant or three children by the addition of an extra 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 are more expensive than tandem buggies or side-byside buggies, but they offer the flexibility of a single buggie and a very high resale price. They're generally simple to steer, feature a huge storage basket and can cope well on uneven surfaces. Some models come with a built-in ride-on board for children older than and 'cinema chairs'.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the best method of transporting your children, regardless of whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two types of double buggy: side-byside buggies that let your children sit together or tandem buggies where one baby is above the other. Both will accommodate 2 fixed seats, but side-by-side buggies are typically narrower in size to fit through doors. Tandems are generally more spacious overall. They can also accommodate seats for toddlers and a carrycot.

Do you have a child?

At first, having a younger sibling may seem like a lot of responsibility especially if you're caring for the baby. A double buggy can help children to feel included when you place them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It can also help your child settle into their new role as big brother or sister'.

Side-by-side double buggies are often considered the best option for twins because they let both children enjoy the same view, but they can be heavy and heavy. The Leclerc B-AGILE DUAL is a compact double buggy with a unique frame that can be expanded widthwise and can accommodate two fixed seats. It also offers different configuration options, including the second seat to create a bassinet.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who are active and are keen to explore. This nifty buggy is a single pushchair that can be transformed into double by adding a second seat or carrycot (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it has lots of thoughtful features to keep everyone comfortable.





Do you require an effective travel system for your business?

Double buggies are excellent for bringing your kids around in comfort but they're not essential for every family. Based on your lifestyle and the age gap between your kids you might be able to get by with a single stroller and some attachments like toddler harnesses and baby carriers that let you carry your child on their back or in front of you.

There are three types of double buggies: tandem side-by-side and convertible. The two seats are placed in a row, so that your children can be able to see each other. They are wider than a single stroller and can be difficult to maneuver over the kerbs. Tandem buggies are a compact option with a seat at the front and a second one at the back. However best travel double stroller can be heavy and lengthy 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. It is possible to keep your baby in the car seat until he or is able to climb up into the buggy seat. The UPPababy V2 is a great illustration - it could be used with twins, a toddler and a baby or even three children using the option of a PiggyBack Board.

When your children are older and have more endurance, a double buggy can also be used to accompany them on bicycle rides or day trips where they'd prefer to walk. It's important to keep in mind that they might not always desire to be in a buggy and can easily get tired and angry during longer trips.

So, before you make the decision to buy a double buggy from birth, take some time to think about the above points and the particular circumstances of your family. A reliable and sturdy double buggy will make life easier, especially when you need to navigate busy streets or crowded malls.
