Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

There are many things to take into consideration when choosing the perfect double buggy 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 essential for active families. It will 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 type of buggy do you want?

Double buggys are great for transporting up to two children at the same time even if they're not the same age. They can be used as prams, and they have recline mechanisms in each seat, so your children can lie down in different positions. Many have ample storage for everything from drinks and snacks to wipes and nappies. They are usually light, fold easily, and small enough to fit in the car boot. If you're a frequent driver, it's worth checking the buggy is easy to manoeuvre using the folded wheels, and to take out and back into your boot.

You might have seen this kind of double buggy travel system buggy on other mums strollers, or even in one as a child. These are great for older siblings who want to keep up with you, or for twins and typically have many seating configurations (including "cinema" seats) for your children to pick from. They're generally easy to drive and, if you opt for a model with a soft suspension, they can be a breeze to get rid of the kerbs.

Tandem buggies are also a popular option because they're more maneuverable than a side-by-side. This is because the second seat is placed behind the first instead of over it. They're generally 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 baby and toddler or three children with the inclusion 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're more expensive than tandem buggies and side-by-side buggies, but they offer the flexibility of a single buggie and have a high selling price. They're generally easy to steer, come with large storage bins and can cope well on uneven surfaces. Some come with a built-in ride-on boards for older children and 'cinema chairs'.

Do you have twins?

If your children are twins or siblings with different ages, a double buggy is the best option to transport them around. There are two kinds of double pram stroller buggies: tandem buggies where one child sits over the other, and side-byside buggies. Both will accommodate 2 fixed seats, but side-byside buggies tend to be narrower in width for getting through doors. Tandems tend to be wider in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot or toddler seats.

Do you have a child?

At first, having a younger sibling can seem like an overwhelming amount of responsibility, especially if you're caring for the baby. They might be a bit irritated when they are in a baby carrier as you push the older sibling to the side, so having a double twin buggy from the start can make everything simpler. It can 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 new role.

Side-by-side double buggies are often considered to be the best choice for twins as they allow both children to enjoy the same view, but they can be bulky and heavy. The Leclerc B-AGILE DUAL is a sleek double buggy that features an innovative frame that expands in width and can accommodate two fixed seats. It also provides a variety of configuration options including using the second seat for an infant bassinet.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who are active and are keen to explore. This innovative buggy is a single-pushchair which can be made double by adding an additional seat or carrycot (depending on the model). Its super-smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain and it comes with a variety of clever features that will keep everyone happy.

Do you require an effective travel system for your business?

Double buggies are excellent for bringing your kids around in comfort, but they're not the ideal purchase for every family. You may be able use one stroller, and some attachments like baby straps and toddler carriers that permit you and your child to ride on their backs or in the front.

There are three kinds of double buggies: tandem, side-by-side and convertible. The two seats are set side-by-side, so your children can be able to see each other. They are wider than a single stroller and may be difficult to navigate through the kerbs. Tandem buggies are compact, with one seat in the front and another at the back. However they can be quite heavy and difficult to push.

Convertible double buggies permit you to convert one stroller into double buggy by attaching an infant car seat to the frame. This way, you can keep your baby in their car seat until they're ready to transition into the main buggy seat. The Uppababy V2 is an excellent illustration - it could be used with twins, a toddler and one or more children with 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 day excursions where they prefer to walk. It's important to keep in mind that your kids may not always like to be in a stroller and could be tired and irritable on longer outings.

Before you decide to invest in a double push chair buggy from birth, take some time to think about the above points and your family's specific circumstances. A sturdy and reliable double stroller can make life much easier particularly if you have to navigate through busy streets or bustling shopping centres.
