Buying a Double Infant Stroller

A double stroller is a great method for parents to carry multiple children. The best models are reasonably simple to fold and transport and can easily fit in a car trunk and have a variety of seating options for children of varying ages.

Parents with children close in age may find that a side by side or sit-and-stand design is the best to avoid sibling squabbles over who gets to ride in which car seat. We also recommend options that accept two infant car seats, such as the UPPAbaby v2 double.

Comfort

It is essential that your baby and toddler are comfortable in the stroller. Select a stroller with comfortable seats and swiveling tires at the front to smooth bumps on the road. Also, select one with buckles that can be easily fastened and unfastened.

You can also look for an ample UPF 50+ canopy that offers sun protection as well as plenty of coverage for both kids. Footrests that can be adjusted allow your child to stand up in the rear seat if they're exhausted. Some double strollers, like the most popular model from Safety 1st, offer this option for both children.

The number of seats you can have in the stroller will be contingent on the weight and age of the children using it. A side-by-side baby stroller allows you to keep an eye on two children at the same time, making it ideal for twins or siblings of the same age. It's more spacious than other types of strollers and may be difficult to maneuver through crowded or narrow spaces.

Sit-and-stand strollers allow older siblings to stand while you push a smaller child in a car seat for infants. It's not the best option for infants but it's a good fit when your kids are around three years old and are able to walk longer distances.

A convertible stroller is a different alternative. It comes with a variety of seating configurations and can be used for years as a double or single. Rebecca says this type of stroller is an excellent choice for parents who want to purchase one stroller, but want to use it with two children. "It's more expensive than our top tandem selection, but it will last a long time, has a great return value, and is extremely versatile," she says.
