Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

When you are deciding on the perfect double buggy, there are plenty of things to take into consideration. 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 will grow with your family, from twins to toddlers. It is lightweight, has great maneuverability and can maneuver through uneven terrain easily.

What style of buggy do you want?

Double buggys are perfect for transporting two children at once, even if they are not of the same age. They can also be used as prams and have the ability to recline in each seat, so your children can sit or lay down in various positions. They also come with plenty of storage space for everything from drinks and snacks to nappies and wipes. They are usually light they fold easily and are small enough to fit in your car's boot. If you travel a significant deal, it's important to check that the buggy can be easily maneuvered by folding the wheels into your boot and taken out.

The most popular type of double buggy is the side-byside that you've likely seen on other moms' pushchairs double or even rode in as a kid. They're ideal for twins who are older or who want to keep up with you. They are also available in a variety of seating configurations, including 'cinema seats'. They're generally easy to steer and, if you go for a model with soft suspension, they can be a breeze to get rid of kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are easier to turn than side-by sides, are also popular. The second seat is positioned behind the first rather than on top. They're usually bigger than a side-byside and can be a bit bulky when folded, so it's essential to make sure they fit through doors and on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler and an infant or three children with the addition of a twin buggy from birth 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're more expensive than tandem buggies and side-by-side buggies, however they provide plenty of flexibility and come with a premium selling price. They're generally easy to steer, have a huge storage basket and are able to handle uneven surfaces. Some come with a built-in ride-on board for children older than and 'cinema chairs'.

Do you have twins?

If your children are twins or siblings with different age groups, a double buggy is the most efficient way to move them around. There are two types of double buggies: tandem buggies where one child sits over the other, and side-byside buggies. Both buggies can accommodate two seats fixed. However side-by-side buggies tend to be narrower to fit through doors. Tandems are generally wider in general. They can also be able to accommodate an infant seat and a carrycot.

Do you have a child?

At beginning, having a younger sibling could feel like a lot of responsibility, especially if you're caring for the baby. A double buggy may help them to feel included if you put them in a baby carrier and push the older child. It will also provide your child with the feeling of pride that comes with knowing that they are able to be "big brother or sister" and help them get used to their role.

The side-by-side double buggies could be a good option for twins since both children will share the same view. However, they are bulky and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE from Leclerc that features an innovative frame that can be expanded the width to accommodate two seats fixed and provides various configuration options, such as using the second seat as baby carrier or a bassinet.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who are active and are keen to explore. This innovative buggy is a single pushchair which can be made a double by adding a second seat or carrycot (depending on model). Its super-smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain, and it comes with a variety of thoughtful features to ensure that everyone is happy.

Do you require a travel system?

Double buggies are an ideal way to move your children safely. However they aren't required for every family. You could make do with one stroller and some attachments like baby carriers and toddler straps that allow your child and you to be able to travel on their backs, or in front.

There are three types of double buggy for twins buggies: tandem side-by-side, and convertible. The two seats are positioned parallel to each other, so your children can see each other. These buggies are wider than a single stroller, and may be difficult to navigate around the kerbs. Tandem buggies provide an alternative that is smaller, with a single seat in the front and one in the rear, however they can be still quite large and heavy to push.

Convertible double buggies are fantastic as they allow you to transform your single stroller into a dual buggy by simply attaching an infant car seat or bassinet to the frame. This way, you can keep your newborn snuggled up in their car seat until they're ready to grow double stroller to move into the main buggy seat. The UPPababy V2 is a great example of this - it can be used for twins, a toddler and an infant, or even three children using the option of a PiggyBack Board.

As your children grow older and more mobile, you can use a double buggy to accompany them to bicycle rides or for day trips where they might prefer to walk. But, it's important to remember that they may not want to be in a buggy, and they could easily become disgruntled and tired when they are on longer excursions.

Before you decide to purchase a double compact twin stroller, take into consideration the factors mentioned above and your family's specific circumstances. Having a solid and reliable double best twin stroller can make life much easier especially if you need to navigate through busy streets or overcrowded shopping centers.
