What Makes Good Prams?A pram, also referred to as a pushchair, stroller or sling, is the primary form of transport for babies and toddlers. A well-designed pram is a combination of comfort, safety and design to make walking enjoyable for the whole family.The R for Rabbit Poppins Joy Stylish Baby Stroller is a wonderful pram for newborns to 3-year-old kids. Its reversible handle allows you to rotate the seat so that your child can face either you or the world around them.ComfortWhen you're out and around with a baby, you want to ensure they're secure. There are prams that will make sure your baby doesn't feel any sensations.All the prams in this guide allow your baby to lie flat. This is essential for newborns since it improves oxygenation and helps support their spine and hips. The seats can be adjusted to a more upright position once your child is able to sit up.For a truly luxurious feel it's the Venicci egg2 provides a warm cocoon-like feel for your baby with sleek, curved lines and a bucket-shape seats that does not recline to a lying-flat position, but has an upholstered liner and mattress. It's also lighter than other prams, at a weight of just 8kg. However, it has a sturdy frame with the grained leather accents and tyres that are air-filled, which are puncture-proof.The Minu V2 is a great choice to consider if you're looking to buy something that has a similar appearance but for a lesser price. The one-hand steer, swish model isn't quite as light as other prams, but it does come with a large storage basket. It also has an extended hood that provides UPF 50+ protection, which keeps your baby safe and shaded.If you're a new parent, we'd recommend considering the travel system bundle that includes a pram as well as a car seat that are attached to the same frame. This will make it much easier to get your baby from the car into the pram without disturbing them and is ideal for parents on the go. The Bugaboo Dragonfly is a great example of a stylish and useful pram that can convert easily from a'pramette' that lies flat into a toddler-friendly pushchair that is compatible with the Graco I-Size car seats.SafetyA pram should be equipped with a five-point safety harness to keep your baby safe and free of any gaps to trap their heads or legs. The straps should be cushioned and easy to adjust as they grow. Also, pushchair with car seat should inspect the buckles of your harness to make sure that they are not cracked or showing signs of wear and tear. Many children are hospitalised each year because of injuries from strollers or prams. Tipping over is the main cause of these injuries. Even the strongest prams can fall over if you hang bags on the handles, or if a child with a wriggling can get in or out of the seat without harnesses being secured.Another frequent cause of injury is falling from the stroller or pram. If a child's harness is not secured properly, it could cause them to fall from the stroller, causing head or neck injuries. It is therefore important to make sure that the buckle on the harness is locked into the correct position.Some prams come with a reversible shade that can be used to shield your baby in either direction from the sun. This is a great feature since you will not be having to wake your baby up when you are changing their position in the pram or when you go into and out of shops. There are also other features that can be useful, for example a snack tray for your child or toddler and drink holders. You can also find a basket for shopping underneath the seat.Do not leave a baby asleep in a pram without having them in sight. Babies are prone to wriggling while sleeping and this could cause them to roll out of the stroller or pram. This could lead to suffocation and strangulation. A pram or stroller is not a substitute for a cot and should be used only for short periods during the day.It is essential to disassemble most prams in order to put them in the boot of your vehicle. This procedure must be mastered before you purchase a pram. Also check how it is easy to put the different sections back together and then click to put them back together.DurabilityA pram should be able to endure a long time of wear. This includes having to deal with the mud-filled walks and many car journeys, so you want to be sure your choice is able to fulfill the tasks you require it to. You also want your pram to be in a print or colour that doesn't get outdated so you don't end up looking like you've fallen out of style.The best prams will be made of high-quality materials, and are designed to last. You should look for durable fabrics as well as sturdy tires and a well-designed system of suspension. The most effective prams are small and fold easily so that you can put them in your garage or even the boot.All the prams on this list allow the baby to lie down flat. This is important for newborns, because it aids in the development of their hips and spine, and improves oxygenation levels. A lot of these prams are designed to expand with your child's. Some have carrycots, or a reclined seat that can be removed and snapped on when your child is outgrowing them.If you are considering buying an infant stroller for the first time, a travel system that comes with the carrycot as well as a car seat may be of interest. We love the Graco Near2Me device that our parent tester Jaya used with her son of 10 months. It comes with an innovative feature that allows you to raise and lower your child at the touch of a single button. This lets you keep your eyes on them and keep them close.The Bugaboo Fox 3 is another option that our test-driver Jess Bird tried with her two babies Effie & Boden (pictured above). It's a stroller that can be converted from a single pushchair a double with 30 different configurations. It also has a sun canopy that can be extended and puncture-proof tires. It's not cheap but you can use it for more than one child in the event of need and, like our winner the iCandy Orange 3, can be used from birth thanks to the carrycot included.StyleNewborns need to lie flat as much as they can in order to promote development and improve oxygen saturation in their lungs, which is why it is essential that all prams support this. Some models allow for an entirely flat position using the carrycot which is fully reclined, whereas others feature a seat that can recline to a horizontal position.The Graco Near2Me has the latter feature and is fantastic at that as our tester for parents Jaya found when she tested it with her son who was 10 months old. She was enthralled by the fact that she could raise and lower her little one with the touch of a button, keeping him in view, while still maintaining eye contact and closeness.It's a great stroller for those who want to travel around town without hassle since the frame is an ideal size for maneuvering, and the puncture-proof tyres let you move it off the road and onto rough terrain. It's also a good option if you're thinking of having a second child in the future since it can easily be converted from a single pram into a double or twin pushchair.The Bugaboo Dragonfly looks and feels like a stylish, high-end option. It's suitable for newborns because it includes a lie-flat carrycot and is compatible with a car seat in the event that you purchase it separately. You can even fold it using the carrycot as a stand which is something does not happen with all prams which is why it's an easy and time-saving feature.The pram's luxurious fabrics as well as the spacious basket and puncture-proof tires are all features you would expect to see on a premium model, but the sleek frame makes it simple to maneuver around various terrains. This is a great choice for those who live in the city and have to navigate narrow streets or congested pathways regularly. Although it's not cheap but the quality and versatility of this model make it possible to save you money over the long term by not having to purchase an additional pushchair for toddlers. You can choose from a range of colors that will fit your preferences.
