Convertible

A single buggy with buggy board convertible pushchair is a fantastic option for parents who want to save money and space. It starts out as a full-featured stroller that can be used for newborns and later easily transforms into a wagon which can accommodate two children. This unique stroller/wagon combination has numerous features that parents love, such as an extra seat and a easy pull handle that allows you to convert it into a wagon. It also comes with adjustable harness strap and a headrest, a basket to use for storage and a retractable sun canopy.

It is a fantastic light option for traveling abroad since it can cope with moderately rough roads.

Lie-flat

Newborn babies require a lie-flat pushchair. This could be a full pram, a travel system with bassinets or an infant car seat that has a base that is lying flat. The Lullaby Trust recommends that babies shouldn't be left in an incline for too long, so they might need to be transferred to a pushchair that is upright or cot within a short period of time.

If you're looking for a single stroller to use from birth, you should look for one that has a fully-reclining seat unit. This can be linked with a newborn cot (usually the case with travel systems that have detachable bassinets). Some single pushchairs come with a fabric cocoon that can be attached to their chassis. This provides the same effect but without the need to purchase a separate car seat.

Some single pushchairs come with an option for parents that allows you to keep an eye on your child and give them plenty of security in the early stages. Certain Jane models have this feature as standard and are perfect for parents who are just starting out.

All-terrain pushchairs are a great option for parents who want to take their child for a stroll on bumpy or uneven terrain. They typically have three wheels to maximise stability and are very easy to maneuver. They're often narrower in the front and lighter and therefore can be manoeuvred in tight spaces.

If you intend to push your stroller over uneven or rough terrain opt for a model that has puncture-resistant tyres. These tyres are a great alternative to air tyres and provide excellent grip on rocky or uneven surfaces.

A rain cover or a comfortable footmuffs are also great options because they provide additional protection against the elements. They can be machine washed, saving you from the trouble of cleaning up spills or dust. The addition of a seat liner will give you extra comfort for your child and protect your fabric from food and drink spillages.

Safety

A pushchair, pram or buggy must have a five-point safety harness to stop your child from falling over the side or falling out of the seat. Make sure that the harness is fitted snugly over the shoulders and around your waist, and that it is securely connected. The straps must be adjustable, and the harness must sit level on the chest of the child, not lower or higher than their stomach.

A single-to-double pushchair, such as the UPPAbaby Vista V2 or egg 2 can easily be converted into the role of a second carrycot or seat by adding a set of tandem adaptors, costing about PS50 that add an additional space on the chassis to accommodate the other baby's seat or carrycot. Although it's a great choice for parents expecting twins or children of similar age but it can be a challenge to maneuver around narrow spaces as it requires you to put one seat and the second carrycot directly behind the other.

Another option is to think about the possibility of a convertible pushchair when you are planning on having another child. They can be used in single and tandem mode. Some brands, such as CYBEX or Silver Cross Wave, allow you to customize their designs by adding an extra seat, second carrycot or a ride-on board.

A shopping basket can help you to keep your shopping in one spot and prevent it from falling out of the stroller. It is also possible to invest in an extra liner for your pushchair, which can protect the seat from spills and soiled stains.

To ensure your child's safety, you will need to clean your buggy, pushchair or pram frequently. The Pushchair Guide suggests gentle cleaning using warm water, mild soap or detergent. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding maintenance and care, and make sure that it is in compliance with all safety standards.
