Choosing a double pram for toddler And Newborn Pram and Pushchair

A double pram can simplify life for families, particularly in busy stores or on busy streets. Choose a model that has ample storage space for nappies snacks, nappies, and other essentials.

Some parents who are new to the family opt for a future-proof pushchair that can be used as a single pram when baby is born, and later transformed into a twin-mode after the baby is old enough. Joolz offers a range of these options.

Tandem

The announcement that you are expecting a child is among life's most exciting experiences. But, once the excitement fades and reality begins to sink in, you may be faced with a myriad of decisions regarding how to prepare your family for the arrival of your little one or one. One of the most important things to consider is choosing the best twin buggy pram or pushchair.

Tandem prams, also known as "in-line" double prams, are a classic design with two bassinets or seats placed side by side. The front seat is typically cushioned and reclines to a flat position making it suitable for newborns and the second seat is more upright and can accommodate toddlers from around three years of age. Some models allow you to choose whether your children look at each other or look outwards. A lot of tandems offer the option of converting into a single pushchair when you decide that your oldest child doesn't require the second seat.

In terms of cost it is cheaper than a twin pushchair and can be a great choice for parents looking to save money but not compromising on safety or convenience. A tandem can be a bit heavy and difficult to steer, particularly when bumping over the kerbs. It is also less stable than twin prams, especially if an older child is in the front. A tandem can be difficult to transport on public transport and can be difficult to navigate on narrow roads.

The iCandy Peach is a popular model with a strong image that's a great choice for a singleton parent who is looking for something that is sleek however, the tandem mode can make it feel quite large and heavy when pushing. It features a clever frame that expands widthways to allow the addition of the second seat, and can be used with multiple combinations of carrycots, buggy chairs and car seats (two at once or separately). The iCandy Wave is another lightweight tandem option that's easy to use and compatible with a variety of car seats and carrycots.

Side by side

When it comes to choosing a double pram or pushchair there's plenty to think about. If you're buying a double pram for twins or other siblings that are similar in age there are plenty of configuration choices to think about. Tandem prams, referred to as side-by-side prams, are popular options because they can be set up in a way that the infant is able to sit in the bassinet on top while the toddler or older child is sitting in the second seat.

Some models have reversible seats that allow you to customize the configuration for your family during the infant and toddler years. This allows you to see your children at all times, and gives them the chance to interact as they walk.

Tandem prams can be jogging buggies, or all-terrain buggies. They are great for outdoor excursions, such as to the park. They're also a good choice when you have to traverse narrow aisles in the supermarket or at checkouts because they tend to be more compact than single-seaters.

The Redsbaby JIVE3 Pram, for example, can be used as a tandem pram right from birth in dual mode, with the addition of the rumble seat (PS249). If your child gets bored of the rumble seat, you can switch to the single pram mode. You may also opt to use the adaptors for car capsules to transform it from a newborn to a toddler travel system.

The Side by Side Pram from Babybee is a different option. This side-by-side double pram is available in a range of colors and comes with a beautiful modern style. It is designed to be used from the moment of birth, you can add the LUNA newborn Cocoon (PS262) and the LUNA Infant Seats (PS53 each).

If you're seeking a sleek, stylish pushchair that converts into a double-sided side-by-side then the Egg 2 from Chicco is a great option. It is available in a variety of infant and carrycots to accommodate twins or siblings of different age groups. It's also incredibly easy to collapse. It's also fairly light and therefore a great choice for those who have small cars or only a little storage space.

Convertible

The best double prams or pushchairs are set up to meet your needs as they change. There is the possibility of fitting two toddlers in a seat or a third rider on the seat board, and still have enough space for a basket to store your shopping, and the ability to add accessories like rain covers is also a benefit. Convertible double strollers tend to be larger and heavier than single pushchairs, as they have to hold two or more children. The Graco Modes Nest2Grow convertible is an example of an affordable convertible that is simple to use. However, our test participants found it to be quite heavy for the price.

Some convertible double strollers, such as the Baby Jogger City Select 2 comes with a carrycot which is suitable for babies. This allows the double infant strollers stroller to be compacted and reduce in size when not being used. Our test participants were awestruck by the City Select's clever one-handed fold, although it takes some time to master. It's also very nimble and agile, despite being larger than double strollers.

Another option that is reasonably priced is the Cybex Mockingbird Single-to-double buggy from birth Stroller. It can be converted from a parent-facing infant car seat to a forward-facing toddler car seat and the bassinet option is a fantastic option for infants (although keep in mind that infants under 4 months old should not sleep in strollers because of the risk of positional asphyxia).

For greater flexibility, opt for a convertible that has dual modes like the iCandy Peach. It's a small double buggy which can accommodate 2 children side by side however it can also be used as a tandem by the addition of a second-seat kit and rider board. It feels nimble and responsive, and our test users liked its sleek design. It's not as lightweight as the other models we've reviewed, however it does come with a huge basket that is useful for parents who are carrying bags filled with toys and other items.

Lightweight

Convertible double strollers are a great alternative for parents who have a child and expect to have another. The iCandy Peach can be converted from a single pushchair a double with the addition of a toddler seat, or the brand's carrycot (which is great to sleep at night). The seats are very comfortable and our test subjects love that they can recline in multiple positions. They also like the feature that the canopy comes with a peekaboo window and UPF 50+ protection. The rear seat can be raised so that the older child can stand on it to reach the basket of shopping.

Cher said that the only downside of the iCandy Peach was its weight. But she felt this was offset by the fact that it's easy to move and offers plenty of storage space, including two cup holders for parents and their children as well as seat-back pockets and a large basket under the seat. Cher also appreciated that seats can be flipped so that they face each other, which is perfect for siblings who like to interact and talk when out and out and about.

The Delta Children LX Side-by-Side Stroller is a smaller model, but still impressive. It weighs just 18 pounds, is small, and has self-standing fold, making it simple to transport or put in your trunk. Parents appreciate the high-quality materials and workmanship, as well as the affordable price. The only issue is that the seats don't recline as far as some other models we've examined and the rear seat doesn't have great visibility due to its positioning as it's higher than the front seat.

The Joolz Geo 3 is another popular choice. It is slim, sleek and easy to steer and has an unbeatable lifetime warranty. While they're smaller than side-by-side strollers, they can be larger than tandems and inline doubles. This makes them difficult to maneuver on busy footpaths and in shops. However, they're usually shorter too, so can be more maneuverable in tight spaces than tandems.
