Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

When you are deciding on the perfect double push chair buggy, there are many things to consider. We spoke with Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options to age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.

This buggy is an essential item for active families. It grows with your family from toddlers to twins. It's lightweight and has great maneuverability and can handle uneven all terrain double stroller easily.

What type of buggy do want?

A double buggy is ideal for transporting two children, not necessarily of the same age, side-by-side. They can also be used as prams. Each seat is equipped with an adjustable mechanism that allows your children can sit or lie down in different positions. Many have ample storage for everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. They're usually lightweight that folds easily and are small enough to fit in your car boot. If you're a frequent driver, it's important to make sure the buggy is easy to manoeuvre with the wheels folded as well as to get it in and out of your boot.

You may have seen this type of double buggy on other mums' strollers or even ridden in one as a kid. They are ideal for older siblings that want to keep up with you, or for twins. They typically come with numerous seating configurations (including 'cinema' seats) for your children to choose from. They are generally easy to control, and if 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 popular. This is because the second seat is placed behind the first rather than over it. The seats are typically 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 an infant or three children, with the addition 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 to single Buggy 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, but they offer plenty of flexibility and have a high cost of resale. They are easy to steer and have an ample storage basket. They also have the ability to handle uneven surfaces. Some models even come with built-in ride-on boards and "cinema seating" for your older child.

Do you have twins?

If your children are twins or siblings with different age groups, a double buggy is the best way to move them around. There are two main types of double buggy: side-byside buggies that let your children are seated in a row, side-by-side and tandem buggies in which one child is placed above the other. Both will accommodate 2 fixed seats, but side-by-side buggies are typically narrower in width for getting through doors. Tandems tend to be larger in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot and toddler seat.

Do you have a toddler?

At beginning, having a younger sibling could seem like a lot of responsibility particularly if you're also taking care of the baby. A double buggy can help them to feel a sense of belonging if you put them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It will also give your child an immense sense of pride when they become a 'big brother or sister' and help them adjust to their new role.

The side-by-side double buggies can be a great option for twins, as each child will get the same view. However, they are bulky and heavy. We love the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc which has an innovative frame that can be expanded in width to accommodate two seats fixed. It also offers various configuration options, such as using the second seat as an infant carrier or bassinet.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to active families who like to explore. This clever buggy is a single pushchair that can be transformed into double by adding a second seat or carrycot (depending on model). Its super-smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain and includes a number of clever features that will ensure that everyone is happy.

Do you require a travel system for your business?

Double buggies are a great way to transport your children in comfort. However, they are not necessary for every family. You could use one stroller and some attachments such as baby straps and toddler carriers that permit your child and you to travel on their backs or in front.

There are three types of double buggies: tandem side-by-side, and convertible. The two seats are positioned side-by-side, so your children will be able to be able to see each other. However, they are typically larger than a single and double stroller pushchair and can be difficult to maneuver around kerbs. Tandem buggies are small that has one seat at the front and another at the back. However they can be quite heavy and long to push.

Convertible double buggies allow you to transform one stroller into double buggy by attaching an infant car seat to the frame. You can keep your child in the car seat until he/she she is ready to grow double stroller to move up into the buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a fantastic example of this. It's suitable for twins, a baby and toddler or even three children with the addition of the optional PiggyBack board.

When your children become older and more able and able, you can get a double buggy to accompany them to bike rides or day excursions where they might prefer to walk. It's important to remember that your children might not always enjoy being in a stroller and might become tired and disgruntled when they are on longer excursions.

Before you purchase a double stroller, think about the factors mentioned above and your family's unique circumstances. A durable and reliable double buggy will make life easier, particularly when you have to navigate through busy streets or crowded malls.
