Buying a Double Buggy From BirthThere are a lot of things to consider when selecting the ideal double buggy from the moment of birth. 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.This buggy is a must-have for active families. It grows with you and your family, from twins to toddlers. It is light and movable, and can maneuver through uneven terrain easily.What style of buggy do you want?A double buggy is ideal for transporting two kids, not necessarily of the same age, side by side. They can also serve as prams, and they have the ability to recline in each seat, so your children can lie down in various positions. They're often spacious enough to store everything from snacks and drinks to nappies and wipes. Often they're lightweight, fold easily and are compact enough to fit in your car boot. If you travel a significant amount, you should make sure that the buggy be easily moved with the folded wheels in your boot and taken out.The most common type of double buggy is the side-byside one, which you've probably seen on other mums pushchairs or even ridden in as a child yourself. They're great for twins who are older or who want to keep up with you. They are also available in various seating options, including 'cinema seats'. They are usually simple to navigate, and if you select a model that has a soft suspension, they will easily handle 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 instead of over it. They're usually bigger than a side-byside and can be heavy when folded, so it's crucial to ensure they fit through doors and 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 by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They are generally more expensive than side-by-sides or tandem buggies, but they offer a lot of versatility and a good price for resales. They're generally simple to steer, feature a huge storage basket and can handle uneven surfaces. Some come with a built-in ride-on board for children older than and 'cinema seats'.Do you have twins?Double buggys are the most efficient way to transport your children, whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two types of double buggies: tandem buggies, where one child is seated over the other, and side by side buggies. Both buggies are able to accommodate two fixed seats. However, side-by-side buggies are narrower to fit through doors. Tandems are generally larger overall. They can also accommodate both seats for toddlers and a carrycot.Do you have a baby?At first having a younger sibling can seem like a lot of responsibility especially if you're caring for the infant. A double buggy may make it easier for them to feel included if you put them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It will also help your child settle into their new role as a 'big brother or sister'.The side-by-side double buggies can be a great choice for twins, since both children will have the same view. However they are heavy and heavy. We love the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc with its innovative frame that expands the width to accommodate two seats fixed. It also offers various configuration options, such as using the second seat as an infant carrier or bassinet.Alternatively, we recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer for active families who like to explore. This buggy is clever and can start with a single pushchair but is then convertible into a double, which can include the place of a second seat or carrycot, or car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it has lots of thoughtful features to 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, but they're not the ideal purchase for every family. Depending on your lifestyle, and the age gap between your children you might be able to make do with just a single stroller and some attachments, such as baby carriers and toddler harnesses that allow you to ferry your child around on their backs or in front of you.If you choose to purchase a double buggy there are three kinds to choose from: side-by-side or tandem, and convertible. Side-by-side buggies have the two seats that are close to each other, meaning that your children will be able see each one another. They are wider than a single stroller and can be difficult to maneuver over kerbs. Tandem buggies are a compact option, with one seat in the front and another at the back. However Pushchairs And Prams can be heavy and difficult to push.Convertible double buggies are great as they allow you to transform your stroller to double buggy by attaching an infant bassinet or car seat to the frame. This will allow you to keep your baby comfortably in their car seat until they're ready to move into the main buggy seat. The Uppababy V2 is an excellent example of this - it can be used with twins as well as a toddler and a baby or even three children with the optional PiggyBack Board.When your children get older and more able, you can use a double buggy to accompany them to cycling trips or other day trips where they might prefer to walk. It's important to keep in mind that your kids may not always enjoy being in a stroller, and may get tired and angry during longer trips.Before you decide to purchase a double stroller, consider the factors mentioned above and your family's unique circumstances. A reliable and sturdy double buggy can make your life easier, especially when you need to navigate through busy streets or crowded malls.
