Comfort

Therefore, it's crucial to make sure your child is comfortable during every trip by choosing an option with plenty of padding as well as a comfortable seat that can be adjusted to the height of your child.

It's important to note that many prams, buggies and pushchairs come with a pram blanket, which can help to keep your child warm. These blankets are easy to wash and come in a range of colours and designs.

A pram is made for newborn babies up to around six months old, when they're still at a stage in which they have to lie flat, often with a carrycot or bassinet attached to the frame. The majority of prams have the option of either 'parent' facing or 'world facing. This allows the user to decide whether they prefer your baby to be facing you in order to bond with you, or to explore the sights and sounds of their surroundings. Some prams can be converted to pushchairs, like the iCandy Peach 7 - a premium single-to-double pushchair that can be used from birth (with carrycot) and up to 25kg (15kg on elevators).

The most important thing to keep in mind is that very young babies shouldn't be using any pushchair that does not recline completely to a flat position. Traveling in a crouching position can impact their breathing as they breathe more than normal. This could lead to respiratory problems in the long term.

Safety

It is crucial to ensure that your child is safe in a pram or pram. You should never place your child in a pram or pushchair specifically designed for their age and size. This will make them feel safe and secure, and also prevent accidents. If you're purchasing a pushchair or pram used, it's important to conduct visual safety checks.

When you are choosing a pushchair or pram make sure you choose one with a safety harness which includes quick and simple clips and connections. Make sure the buckles are not loose and that the straps fit snugly around your baby's waist. Find models that have a larger base as they are more stable than those with a narrow base.

Avoid overloading your pram or pushchair with things. This could cause it to tip over and your baby might be thrown out. Do not put anything that can hurt your baby in the basket, such as drinks, snacks, or toys.

Follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer when cleaning your stroller or pram. Whether you're washing the fabric or cleaning the hood, make sure you dry it thoroughly outside to prevent mildew or mould forming.

If your pushchair or pram features a footmuff that is removable, it's a good idea wash it before you use it again in winter. This can be done by taking the fabric off and washing it in cool water using soap and letting it air dry outside. You should also brush off any dirt or mud from the axles and wheels.

Experts recommend that babies lay flat in a pushchair or pram as soon as they can. This will aid their development and decrease the chance of back issues as they age.

Under the General Product Safety Regulations of 2005, manufacturers and retailers are required to provide products that will be safe for normal or reasonably regular use. This is applicable to new prams and pushchairs as well as second-hand ones.

Style

Some parents are looking for the most functional set-up of wheels they can get, but many parents also want a pram that is as stylish as their baby. There are plenty of high-quality pushchairs and prams on the market that blend high-end engineering with fetching designs that are as attractive as they are practical.

When you are choosing the right pushchair or pram the first thing you need to consider is the seat padding. Babies are messy and having a pram that is easy to clean is essential. This is especially important in the event that you plan to make use of your pushchair for long walks in rough terrain or over gravel, dirt and cobbles. Search for a pushchair that comes with removable seat covers and a recline mechanisms which can be machine washed. Make sure the fabric is also breathable to keep your baby dry and comfortable.

You should also consider the direction your baby will be facing in their pushchair. The majority of pushchairs that are 'from birth' let you switch the seat to face either parent (facing the parent to reassure and bond) or world facing, so that your child can explore the world. Some pushchairs offer this feature too however it's not a necessity for all models and can be an option that is only available as an extra.

Combination prams are referred to as 3-in-1 prams. They are popular with families due to the fact that they can accommodate an infant bassinet on the same frame. They are usually designed for use from birth and are suitable for babies from 6 months to.

A compact travel pram system is a similar option to a combination pram in that it allows you to fit car seats on the frame too, usually by using adaptors. They are ideal for infants and toddlers from birth to three years old. They can be less expensive than buying separate items.

Twin prams or pushchairs can be a great option for twin babies or siblings of the same age who both require transportation in comfort and safety. These are available in many styles and can be fitted with one car seat pram seat or a double one.

Stores

As well as offering security and comfort for your little one the pram or pushchair should provide ample storage space for all the necessities. Look for models that have a large shopping basket to hold all of the baby pram's items like spare clothes, changing equipment, water bottles, and snacks. Some models have a compartment for the parent or child which is ideal to store your personal items. If you're looking to purchase a stroller with more storage space, opt for a convertible model that has different configurations. Having extra space is especially crucial if you plan to take your baby on long walks or excursions away from home and need an area to store anything you might require.

Another important aspect to consider is the ability to maneuver. Pick swivels wheels that can get around narrow spaces easily. Also, look for locking brakes that have a receptive stopping power. If you are looking at a light-weight model, make sure that it has the appropriate suspension system and foldable dimensions to facilitate storage and transportation. Alternatively, if you want something more robust for off-road use, select a model with robust all-terrain wheels able to cope with rougher surfaces than pavements.

The primary difference between a pram and pushchair is that a pushchair offers a lie-flat sleeping position for infants, while a pushchair is more suited to older babies and toddlers who can sit up on their own. Some prams can be converted into a pushchair by removing the bassinet and replacing it with a seat while other models such as the Bababing Raffi complete bundle are all-in-one prams that can convert into a car seat or carrycot.

Whatever kind of pram or pushchair you choose, be sure to read reviews on the internet and ask for suggestions from family and friends. Try out a variety of models before making a final decision. This will give you an idea of their weight, their folding capabilities and how they feel. Consider a convertible car, which can be used for one or two kids. This will save you money since you won't need to purchase a new set of wheels every time your child grows.
