Buying a double buggy from birth (visit link)

There are many things to consider when selecting the ideal double buggy right from the moment of birth. 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 investment for families with active children This buggy can grow with your family from twins to toddlers. It's light and easy to maneuver and is able to tackle uneven terrain with ease.

What kind of buggy do you prefer?

A double buggy is ideal for transporting two children, not necessarily of the same age, side by side. They can be used as prams and have the ability to recline within each seat, allowing your children can sit or lie down in different positions. Many of them also have plenty of storage space to store everything from drinks and snacks to wipes and nappies. Often they're lightweight, fold easily and compact enough to fit in your car boot. If you drive a lot it's worth checking that the buggy's maneuverability using the folded wheels, as well as to get it in and out of your car boot.

The most common type of double buggy is the side by side one, which you've probably seen on other mums pushchairs, or perhaps ridden in as a child. These are great for older siblings that want to keep up with you, or for twins. They typically come with numerous seating options (including 'cinema' seats) for your children to choose from. These are usually easy to steer, and if you opt for a model with a soft suspension, they can effortlessly handle kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are simpler to turn than side-by sides, are also very popular. The second seat is positioned behind the first rather than on the top. The seats are usually larger and heavier than a side by side and you must ensure whether they can fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler and three children by the addition of a buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single-to-double' convertibles which can be used as a single to double buggy 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 and side-by-side buggies, however they provide plenty of flexibility and have a high cost of resale. They are easy to steer and come with a large storage basket. They also have the ability to handle uneven surfaces. Some models come with a built-in ride-on boards for older children and 'cinema chairs'.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the best lightweight double stroller method of transporting your children, whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two types of double buggies: tandem buggies which have one child sitting over the other, and side by side buggies. Both will accommodate 2 fixed seats, but side-by-side buggies are typically narrower in width to allow for access through doors. Tandems are generally wider in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot or toddler seat.

Do you have one?

Being a parent to a child can feel like an enormous responsibility at first, especially when you must tend to the baby. They may be a bit irritated when they are in an infant carrier while you push the older one along and having a double stroller with car seat buggy from birth can make things easier. It can aid your child in settling into their new role of a 'big brother or sister'.

Side-by-side buggies can be a great choice for twins since each child will get the same view. However they're heavy and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc with its innovative frame that opens in width to accommodate two fixed seats and offers various configuration options, including using the second seat as a bassinet or infant carrier.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to active families who like to explore. This innovative buggy starts off as a single pushchair and it can then be converted into a double, which can include the place of a second seat or carrycot, or car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it comes with many thoughtful features that are sure to ensure that everyone is happy.

Do you need a travel system?

Double buggies are an ideal way to move your children in a comfortable way. However they aren't necessary for every family. Depending on your lifestyle, and the age gap between your kids, you may be able to do with just a single stroller and some attachments like baby carriers and toddler harnesses that allow you to ferry your child around on their backs or in front of you.

If you choose to purchase a double buggy there are three types to choose from: side-by-side as well as convertible. The two seats are placed parallel to each other, so your children will be able to see one another. These buggies are wider than a single stroller, and can be difficult to navigate around the kerbs. Tandem buggies are small with a seat at the front and another at the back. However they can be quite heavy and difficult to push.

Convertible double buggies are wonderful because they let you convert your stroller to a dual buggy by simply attaching an infant car seat or bassinet to the frame. This allows you to keep your infant snuggled comfortably in their car seat until they're ready for a move into the main buggy seat. The Uppababy V2 is an excellent illustration - it could be used with twins as well as a toddler and an infant, or even three children using the option of a PiggyBack Board.

Once your children are older and have more endurance, a double buggy can also be used to accompany them on bike rides or other day excursions where they prefer walking. It's important to keep in mind that they might not always want to be in a buggy, and they could easily be tired and disgruntled during longer trips.

Before you decide to purchase a double stroller, think about the above factors and your family's specific circumstances. A durable and reliable double buggy can make your life easier, particularly when you have to navigate busy streets or overcrowded malls.
