Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

When it comes to choosing the ideal double buggy, there are many things to take into consideration. Katie Billingsley, a postnatal retreat expert from the Fourth Trimester, gave us her advice on everything ranging from seating options and age groups to folding mechanisms and storage.

A must-have investment for active families, this buggy grows with your family from twins to toddlers. It's lightweight with great manoeuvrability and can handle difficult terrain with ease.

What kind of buggy do want?

A double buggy is perfect for transporting two children, but not necessarily of the same age, side by side. They can be used as prams and come with recline mechanisms in each seat so your children can lie down in different positions. Many have ample storage for everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. They're typically lightweight double buggy, easy to fold and are compact enough to fit in your car boot. If you drive a lot it's worth checking the buggy's maneuverability with the folded wheels and to take out and back into your boot.

The most popular type of double buggy is the side-byside, which you've likely seen on other moms pushchairs, or perhaps ridden in as a child yourself. These are great for older siblings that want to keep up with you or for twins. They usually have numerous seating configurations (including "cinema" seats) for your toddlers to pick from. They're usually pretty easy to drive and, if you opt for a model that has soft suspension, they can be a breeze to get rid of the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are more simple to turn than side-by-sides are also popular. The second seat is located behind the first and not on the top. The seats are usually bigger and bulkier than a side-by-side however, so make sure whether they are able to pass through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler and an infant or three children by the addition of an extra buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single-to-double pushchair with car seat' 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 and tandem buggies but provide plenty of versatility and a good price for resales. They're generally simple to steer, feature an enormous storage basket and can handle uneven surfaces. Some have a built in ride-on boards for older children and 'cinema chairs'.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the most efficient method to transport your children, whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two kinds of double buggies: tandem buggies, which have one child sitting over the other, and side-byside buggies. Both will accommodate 2 fixed seats, however side-by-side buggies tend to be narrower in width to allow for access through doors. Tandems are generally wider in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot as well as a toddler seats.

Do you have a baby?

Having a younger sibling can feel like a big responsibility initially, particularly when you have to tend to the baby. A double buggy may allow children to feel included when you put them in a baby carrier and push the older child. It can also provide your child with a sense of pride as they get to be "big brother or sister" and help them adjust to their role.

Side-by-side double buggies are often considered the best double buggy option for twins since they allow both children to enjoy the same view, however they can be heavy and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc with its innovative frame that can be expanded in width to accommodate two seats fixed. It also offers various configuration options, including the second seat being used as baby carrier or a bassinet.

We also recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer for active families who like to explore. This clever buggy is a single pushchair which can be made a double buggy side by side by adding an additional seat or carrycot (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain, and it comes with many thoughtful features that will ensure that everyone is happy.

Do you require a traveling system?

Double buggies are excellent for transporting your children around in comfort however they're not a necessary purchase for every family. Depending on your lifestyle and the age gap between your children, you may be able to get by using a single stroller double with some attachments like toddler harnesses and baby carriers which allow you to transport your child on their backs or in front of you.

There are three kinds of double buggies: tandem side-by-side and convertible. The two seats are set parallel to each other, so your children can see one another. However, they are typically larger than a single pushchair, and can be tricky to maneuver up and down kerbs. Tandem buggies are small, with one seat at the front and a second one at the back. However they can be quite heavy and difficult to push.

Convertible double buggies are great because they let you convert your single stroller into a dual buggy by simply attaching an infant car seat or bassinet to the frame. This allows you to keep your newborn snuggled up safely in their car seat until they're ready to transition into the main buggy seat. The UPPababy V2 is a great illustration - it could be used for twins as well as a toddler and one or more children with the optional PiggyBack Board.

Once your children are older and have more endurance, a double-buggy can also be used to accompany them on bike rides or day trips where they might prefer to walk. It is important to keep in mind that your children may not always be comfortable in a stroller for twins With car seats and might be tired and irritable during longer trips.

So, before you decide to purchase a double buggy at the time of birth be sure to consider the above factors and the particular circumstances of your family. A solid and reliable double stroller will make life much easier particularly if you have to travel through busy streets or bustling shopping centres.
