Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

There are a lot of factors to consider when selecting the perfect double buggy from the moment of birth. We spoke to Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options and age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.

This buggy is a must-have for active families. It grows with you and your family, from twins to toddlers. It is light with great maneuverability and can handle uneven terrain with ease.

What type of buggy would you like?

A double buggy is perfect for transporting two children, but not necessarily of the same age, side by side. They can also function as prams. Each seat comes with an adjustable mechanism that allows your children can sit or lie down in various positions. A lot of them have plenty of storage space to store everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. Often they're lightweight double buggy, fold up easily and are compact enough to fit in the car boot. If you're someone who drives a lot, it's worth checking the buggy's ease of use with the folded wheels and to take out and into your boot.

The most popular type of double buggy is the side-byside one, which you've probably seen on other mothers pushchairs, or perhaps ridden in as a kid. 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 little ones to choose from. They are generally easy to navigate, and if you select a model that has a soft suspension, they can easily navigate the kerbs.

Tandem buggies are a popular choice as they're typically easier to turn than a side-by-side. The second seat is placed behind the first and not on the top. They're generally wider than a side-by-side and can be heavy when folded, which is why it's crucial to ensure they be able to pass through doors and public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler, a baby or three children by the addition of an extra 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 are more expensive than tandem buggies or side-by-side buggies, but they offer plenty of flexibility and come with a premium resale price. They are easy to steer and have a large storage basket. They are also able to handle uneven surfaces. Some even have an integrated ride-on board that can be used as 'cinema seating' for your older child.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the best method to transport your children, whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two kinds of double buggy - side-by-side buggies in which your children sit together and tandem buggies in which one baby is above the other. Both buggies can be fitted with two fixed seats. However, side-by-side buggies are narrower to be able to pass through doors. Tandems tend to be wider in general. They can also be able to accommodate a toddler seat and a carrycot.

Do you have a child?

At beginning the idea of having a younger sibling can feel like a lot of responsibility, especially if you are also caring for the baby. A double buggy may allow them to feel a sense of belonging if you place them in a baby carrier and push the older child. It will also help your child settle into their new role as a 'big sister or brother'.

Side-by-side buggies can be a great option for twins, as both children will have the same view. However they are heavy and heavy. We love the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE by Leclerc that features an innovative frame that opens the width to accommodate two seats fixed. It also offers different configuration options, including the second seat being used as baby carrier or a bassinet.

We also recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer for families that love to explore. This innovative buggy starts with an individual pushchair, but is then convertible into a double, which can include a second seat, carrycot or car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it has lots of thoughtful features to ensure that everyone is happy.

Do you require a system of travel for your business?

Double buggies can be a great way to transport your children safely. However they aren't required for every family. Depending on your lifestyle and the age gap between your kids you may be able to do with a single stroller and certain attachments such as toddler harnesses and baby carriers that allow you to ferry your child on their back or in front of you.

There are three types of off road double buggy buggies: tandem side-by-side, and convertible. Side-by-side buggies come with two seats near each other, which means your children will be able see each one another. However, these are typically larger than a single pushchair and are difficult to maneuver between kerbs. Tandem buggies are a compact option that has one seat in the front and a second one at the back. However they can be quite heavy and lengthy to push.

Convertible double buggies allow you to convert a single stroller into a double buggy by securing a bassinet or infant car seat to the frame. You can leave your baby in the car seat until he or is ready to step to the buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a great illustration of this. It's suitable for twins or a toddler and baby or even three children with the addition of the optional PiggyBack board.

If your children have grown older and have more endurance, a double buggy can be used to accompany them on bike rides or other day excursions where they prefer walking. It's important to keep in mind that your children might not always enjoy being in a stroller and could become tired and disgruntled during longer trips.

Before you decide to purchase a double stroller, take into consideration the above factors and your family's unique circumstances. A sturdy and reliable double buggy will make life easier, especially when you are required to navigate through busy streets or busy malls.
