Car Seat

A 2 in 1 travel system pram comes with an infant car seat that snaps into the stroller. It also has the ability to transform into an infant carrycot, making it a one-stop shop for your baby's initial years.

The important thing is to get a quality product that can work with the specific car model you have and is safe to be installed. Check the manufacturer's guidelines and the Consumer Products Safety Commission website for recalls. Also, check with your insurance provider if it offers roadside assistance if you need help installing something or addressing another issue.

Carrycot

Carrycots are a simple to transport, small crib that can be connected to a frame for a pram. It lets newborns rest comfortably while on the move. It is a great option to use from birth until your baby can sit without assistance, which is typically around six months. A carrycot can also be used as a substitute to a crib or moses basket. It could also serve as a bed for travel when you are away from home. The carrycot in a 2 in1 travel system pram is typically large and flat. It helps your baby's natural position for sleep and promotes healthy growth. Some of our carrycots, like the didofy Stargazer are also suitable for sleep at night and can be easily folded and stored when not in use.

Many of these models offer the ability to remove the seat unit for the pushchair which allows you to use it as a lightweight stroller once your baby is old enough to sit and face you.

Also look out for carrycot accessories such as footmuffs, weather shields and tray for the child and parent to help your child feel comfy and secure while they sleep in their cot.

Stroller

A stroller is a great option for babies who are able to sit in an infant car seat and is ready to begin walking on their own. Strollers are easy to fold and are small enough to can be tucked away in the trunk of your car. They are spacious enough to hold all of your baby's essentials and provide an enjoyable ride, even on rough terrain. Some strollers feature a large bassinet to allow for napping in the car.
