Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

There are a lot of things to consider when selecting the ideal double seat stroller buggy right from the time of birth. Katie Billingsley, a postnatal retreat expert from the Fourth Trimester, gave us her advice on everything ranging 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 toddlers to twins. It is lightweight and movable, and is able to handle uneven terrain with ease.

What kind of buggy do you want?

A double buggy is perfect for transporting two kids, not necessarily of the same age, side by side. They can also serve as prams. Each seat is equipped with an adjustable mechanism so that your children can sit or lie down in different positions. A lot of them have plenty of storage space to store everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. They're usually lightweight that folds easily and are compact double buggy enough to fit in the car boot. If you drive a lot it's worth checking that the buggy's ease of use with the folded wheels and to take out and back into your boot.

The most well-known type of double buggy is the side-byside that you've probably seen on other mums' pushchairs double or even rode 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 options (including "cinema" seats) for your little ones to choose from. They're generally easy to drive and, if you decide to go for a model with soft suspension, make light work of the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are more simple to turn than side-by sides, are also popular. This is due to the fact that the second seat is placed behind the first instead of over it. The seats are usually bigger and bulkier than a traditional side by side and you must ensure that they will fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used for twins or a toddler and a baby or three kids with the addition 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 are generally more expensive than side by sides or tandem buggies but provide plenty of flexibility and have a great resale value. They're generally easy to steer, come with large storage bins and can cope well on uneven surfaces. Some even have an integrated ride-on board that can be used as 'cinema seating' for your child's older.

Do you have twins?

Whether your children are twins or siblings of different age groups, a double buggie is the best double stroller option to move them around. There are two types of double buggy - side-by-side buggies in which your children sit together and tandem buggies in which one baby is above the other. Both buggies can be fitted with two seats fixed. However side-by-side buggies tend to be narrower to be able to pass through doors. Tandems are generally wider in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot or toddler seat.

Do you have one?

Having a younger sibling can feel like quite an enormous responsibility at first, especially when you have to tend to the infant. They may be feeling a little secluded if they are placed in a baby carrier as you push the older one along and having a double buggy from birth will make life simpler. It will also help your child settle into their new role of big brother or sister'.

Side-by-side double buggies are usually considered the best option for twins as they let both children enjoy the same view, but they can be hefty and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc that features an innovative frame that expands the width to accommodate two seats fixed and provides different configuration options, including using the second seat as baby carrier or a bassinet.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to active families who are keen to explore. This nifty buggy is a single pushchair that can be converted into a double by adding a second seat or carrycot (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is perfect 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 necessary for every family. You could use one stroller with a few attachments, such as baby carriers and toddler straps that permit you and your child to ride on their backs or in front.

There are three kinds of double buggies: tandem, side-by-side and convertible. Side-by-side buggies have the two seats positioned near each other, which means your children will be able see each one another. They are wider than a single stroller and can be difficult to navigate through the kerbs. Tandem buggies are an easier way to travel with a single seat in the front and a second in the rear, but they are still heavy and long to push.

Convertible double buggies are fantastic as they allow you to transform your single and double stroller stroller into a dual buggy by simply attaching an infant car seat or bassinet to the frame. This way, you can keep your infant snuggled safely in their car seat until they're ready to move into the main buggy seat. The UPPababy V2 is a great illustration - it could be used for twins as well as a toddler and one or more children with the optional PiggyBack Board.

As your children grow older and more able, you can use a double buggy to accompany them to bike rides or day excursions where they may prefer to walk. It is important to keep in mind that your children might not always enjoy being in a stroller, and may be tired and irritable during longer trips.

So, before you make the decision to buy a double stroller from the beginning be sure to think about the above points and your family's specific circumstances. A solid and reliable double stroller can simplify life especially if you need to navigate busy streets or overcrowded shopping centers.
