Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

When choosing the perfect double buggy, there are plenty of things to consider. 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 grows with your family from twins to toddlers. It's light and easy to maneuver and can handle uneven terrain easily.

What type of buggy do you want?

A double buggy is perfect for transporting two children, not necessarily of the same age, side-by-side. They can also function as prams. Each seat is equipped with an adjustable mechanism so that your children can sit or lie down in various positions. They also come with plenty of storage space to store everything from snacks and drinks to nappies and wipes. Often they're lightweight, easy to fold and compact enough to fit in your car boot. If you travel a significant amount, it's essential to make sure that the buggy be easily pushed around with the wheels folded in your car boot and removed.

The most common type of double buggy is the side by side one, which you've probably seen on other mothers' pushchairs or even rode in as a kid. They're ideal for older siblings or twins who want to keep up with you. They also come in various seating options, including 'cinema seats'. They are usually simple to steer, and if you choose a model with a soft suspension, they will easily handle the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are more simple to turn than side-by sides, are also very popular. This is because the second seat is placed behind the first rather than on top of it. The seats are generally larger and heavier than a traditional side by side, so you should check whether they can fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler, a baby or three children by the addition of an additional 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 pushchair from birth by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They're more expensive than tandem buggies or side-byside buggies, however they provide plenty of flexibility and come with a premium cost of resale. They're generally easy to steer, have an enormous storage basket and are able to handle uneven surfaces. Some models come with a built-in ride-on board for older children and 'cinema chairs'.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the most efficient method of transporting your children, no matter if they are twins or older siblings. There are two primary types of double buggy: side-by-side buggies in which your children are seated together or tandem buggies where one child is placed above the other. Both can be fitted with two fixed seats, but side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller in width to allow for access through doors. Tandems tend to be larger in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot or toddler seats.

Do you have a child?

Having a younger sibling can feel like quite a big responsibility at first, especially when you have to tend to the infant. They might be feeling a little secluded if they are placed in a baby carrier while you push the older sibling to the side and having a double buggy right from the beginning can make things simpler. It can also provide your child with a sense of pride as they become a "big brother or sister" and help them get used to their role.

The side-by-side double buggies can be a great option for twins, as both children will share the same view. However they are heavy and heavy. We love the streamlined B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc with its innovative frame that opens the width to accommodate two fixed seats and offers various configuration options, such as the second seat being used as baby carrier or a bassinet.

If you prefer, we suggest the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer for families that love to explore. This clever buggy can start off as a single pushchair but is then convertible into a double, taking an additional seat or carrycot, or car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain, and it features many thoughtful features that will ensure that everyone is happy.

Do you require a business travel system?

Double buggies can be an ideal way to move your children in a comfortable way. However they aren't necessary twin strollers for newborns every family. You may be able use one stroller, and some attachments like baby straps and toddler carriers that permit your child and you to travel on their backs or in the front.

There are three types of double buggies: tandem side-by-side, and convertible. Side-by-side buggies have two seats positioned near each other, meaning that your children can see each one another. They are larger than a single stroller, and aren't easy to maneuver through kerbs. Tandem buggies are small with a seat at the front and a back seat. However, they can be heavy and difficult to push.

Convertible double buggies permit you to transform one stroller into a double buggy by attaching an infant car seat to the frame. This allows you to keep your infant snuggled in their car seat until they're ready for a move into the main buggy seat. The UPPAbaby V2 is a good example of this - it can be used with twins or a toddler, an infant, or even three children with the option of a PiggyBack Board.

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

So, before you decide to purchase a double buggy from birth (see page) make sure you take a look at the above factors and the particular circumstances of your family. Having a sturdy and reliable double twin stroller with car seats can simplify life, especially if you need to navigate busy streets or overcrowded shopping centers.
