14 Cartoons About Double Buggy From Birth That'll Brighten Your Day

Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

There are a lot of things to take into consideration when choosing the ideal double buggy right from birth. Katie Billingsley, a postnatal retreat expert from the Fourth Trimester, gave us her suggestions on everything from seating options and age groups, to folding mechanisms and storage.

This buggy is an essential item for active families. It will grow with your family, from twins to toddlers. It's lightweight and movable, and can handle uneven terrain easily.

What double umbrella stroller of buggy do want?

A double buggy is great for transporting two kids, 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 various positions. A lot of them have plenty of storage space for everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. They are often lightweight that folds easily and are compact enough to fit in your car's boot. If you travel a significant deal, it's important to ensure that the buggy can be easily maneuvered by folding the wheels into your car boot and removed.

The most common type of double buggy is the side-by-side, which you've likely seen on other moms pushchairs, or perhaps ridden in as a child. These are great for older siblings who wish to keep up with you, or for twins and typically have a large number of seating configurations (including "cinema" seats) for your children to choose from. They are generally easy to navigate, and if you choose a model with a soft suspension, they are able to easily handle the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are easier to turn than side-by-sides are also very popular. This is because the second seat is placed behind the first, instead of over it. They're usually bigger than a side-byside and can be heavy when folded, so it's essential to make sure they fit through doors and public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler and an infant or three children with the addition of an additional 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 generally more expensive than side-by-sides or tandem buggies but provide plenty of flexibility and a high resale value. They're generally simple to steer, feature large storage bins and can cope well on uneven surfaces. Some models even come with a built-in ride-on board and 'cinema seating' for your child's older.

Do you have twins?

If your children are twins or siblings with different age groups, a double buggy is the most efficient way to move them around. There are two types of double buggy: side-by-side buggies in which your children are seated side by side, and tandem buggies where one child is placed above the other. Both will accommodate 2 fixed seats, but side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller in size to fit through doors. Tandems tend to be larger in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot or toddler seats.

Do you have children?

At first, having a younger sibling may feel like an overwhelming amount of responsibility, especially if you are also taking care of the baby. A double buggy can help them to feel a sense of belonging if you put them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It will also give your child the feeling of pride that comes with knowing that they get to be 'big brother or sister' and help them settle into their role.

Side-by-side buggies can be a great option for twins since both children will have the same view. However, they are bulky and heavy. We love the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc with its innovative frame that opens the width to accommodate two seats fixed. It also offers various configuration options, including using the second seat as an infant carrier or bassinet.

If you prefer, we suggest 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, which can include the place of a second seat, carrycot or car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain, and it has numerous thoughtful features that will ensure that everyone is happy.


Do you require a traveling system?

Double buggies are an ideal way to move your children in comfort. However they aren't required for every family. You could use a single stroller, and some attachments such as baby carriers and toddler straps that permit your child and you to be able to travel on their backs, or in the front.

If you decide to go with a double buggy there are three types to pick from: side-by-side or tandem, and convertible. Side-by-side buggies have two seats close to each other, so your children will be able to see each one another. These buggies are wider than a single stroller and may be difficult to navigate through the kerbs. Tandem buggies offer an easier way to travel with a single seat in the front and another in the rear, but they can be still quite long and heavy to push.

Convertible double buggies are fantastic because they allow you to convert your single stroller into an additional buggy by attaching an infant car seat or bassinet to the frame. You can leave your baby in the car seat until he or is able to climb into the buggy seat. The Uppababy V2 is an excellent example of this - it can be used with twins, a toddler and a baby or even three children with the optional PiggyBack Board.

Once your children are older and have more stamina, a double buggy can be used to accompany them on bike rides or day trips where they might prefer to walk. But, it's important to remember that they may not always prefer to ride in a buggy and can easily be tired and disgruntled when they are on longer excursions.

Before you decide to purchase a double stroller, think about the factors mentioned above and your family's unique situation. A sturdy and reliable double buggy can make your life simpler, especially when you need to navigate through busy streets or busy malls.
