Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

When you are deciding on the perfect double buggy, there are a lot of things to take into consideration. We spoke with Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options, age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.

A must-have investment for families with active children, this buggy grows with your family from twins through to toddlers. It is light with great maneuverability and can maneuver through uneven terrain with ease.

What type of buggy do you prefer?

Double buggys are ideal for transporting up to two children at a time, even if they are not of the same age. They can also serve as prams and have a reclining mechanism within each seat, allowing your children can lie down in various positions. A lot of them have plenty of storage space for everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. They're usually lightweight, fold easily, and small enough to fit in the car boot. If you drive a great deal, it's important to make sure that the buggy be easily maneuvered with the wheels folded in your car boot, and then removed.

The most common type of double buggy is the side by side, which you've probably seen on other mums' twin pushchairs or even rode in as a child. They're great for twins or older siblings who want to keep up with you. They also come in various seating options and styles, including 'cinema chairs'. They are generally easy to navigate, and if you opt for a model with a soft suspension, they will easily handle the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are simpler to turn than side-by sides, are also very popular. The second seat is located behind the first, rather than on top. The seats are usually larger and heavier than a side by side however, so make sure whether they can fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used for twins or a toddler and a baby or three children with the addition of a buggy.

Lastly there are the'single-to-sit n stand double stroller' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double tandem pushchair by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They tend to be more expensive than side-by-sides or tandem buggies but offer lots of versatility and a good resale value. They are easy to steer and have an ample storage basket. They are also able to handle uneven surfaces. Some even have built-in ride-on boards and cinema seating for your older child.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the best way to transport your children, regardless of whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two kinds of double buggies: tandem buggies, where one child is seated over the other, and side-by-side buggies. Both will accommodate 2 fixed seats, however side-by-side buggies tend to be smaller in width to allow for access through doors. Tandems tend to be wider in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot and toddler seats.

Do you have one?

A younger sibling can feel like quite an enormous responsibility initially, particularly when you have to tend to the infant. They may be feeling a little secluded when they are in an infant carrier while you push the older sibling along, so having a double buggy from birth can make things simpler. It will also help your child settle into their new role of a 'big brother or sister'.

Side-by-side buggies can be a good option for twins since both children will have the same view. However they are heavy and heavy. We love the streamlined B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc that features an innovative frame that opens in width to accommodate two seats fixed and provides various configuration options, such as the second seat being used as baby carrier or a bassinet.

If you prefer, we suggest an alternative, the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer for families who love to explore. This innovative buggy is a single-pushchair that can be transformed into double by adding a second seat or carrycot (depending on model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it includes a number of clever features that will keep everyone comfortable.

Do you require an automated system of travel for your business?

Double buggies are great for transporting your children around in comfort however they're not essential for every family. You might be able to make do with a single stroller, and some attachments like baby straps and toddler carriers that allow you and your child to ride on their backs or in front.

There are three different 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 see one another. However, they are generally larger than a single twin pushchair from birth, and can be difficult to maneuver up and down kerbs. Tandem buggies are compact with a seat at the front and a back seat. However they can be quite heavy and lengthy to push.

Convertible double buggies allow you to convert one stroller into double buggy by attaching the bassinet or infant car seat to the frame. You can leave your child in the car seat until he or is able to climb into the buggy seat. The UPPAbaby V2 is a good illustration - it could be used for twins or a toddler, one or more children using the optional PiggyBack Board.

Once your children are older and have more endurance, a double buggy with car seat-buggy can also be used to accompany them on bicycle rides or day trips where they might prefer walking. It's important to remember that your children might not always like to be in a stroller and might become tired and disgruntled when they are on longer excursions.

Before you purchase a double stroller, take into consideration the factors mentioned above and your family's unique circumstances. A durable and reliable double buggy can make life easier, especially when you have to navigate busy streets or busy malls.
