Buying a Double Buggy From Birth

When choosing the perfect double buggy, there are plenty of aspects to consider. We spoke to Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options and age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.

A must-have purchase for families with active children, this buggy grows with your family from twins through to toddlers. It's light and easy to maneuver and is able to tackle difficult terrain with ease.

What kind of buggy do you want?

Double buggys are ideal for transporting up to two children at once even if they're not the same age. They can also function as prams. Each seat has a reclining mechanism so that your children can sit or lie down in different positions. A lot of them have plenty of storage space for everything from snacks and drinks to nappies and wipes. They're usually lightweight double buggy that folds easily and are compact enough to fit in your car's boot. If you're someone who drives a lot, it's worth checking the buggy's maneuverability using the folded wheels, and also to get in and out of your car boot.

The most common type of double buggy is the side-by-side one, which you've probably seen on other mothers pushchairs or even ridden in as a kid. They are ideal for older siblings who want to keep up with you or for twins. They typically come with a large number of seating configurations (including 'cinema' seats) for your children to choose from. They're usually easy to steer and, if you go for a model with soft suspension, they can be a breeze to get rid of the kerbs.

Tandem buggies are also a popular option because they're easier to turn than side-by-side. This is because the second seat sits behind the first, instead of sitting on top of it. The seats are generally larger and heavier than a side by side and you must ensure whether they are able to pass through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins or a toddler and baby or three children with the addition of a buggy 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 or side-byside buggies, however they provide the flexibility of a single buggie and have a high cost of resale. They are easy to steer and have an ample storage basket. They also have the ability to handle uneven surfaces. Some models come with a built-in ride-on board for children older than and 'cinema chairs'.

Do you have twins?

Double buggys are the best lightweight double stroller method of transporting your children, whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two types of double buggies: tandem buggies where one child is seated over the other, and side-by-side buggies. Both buggies can be fitted with two seats fixed. However, side-by-side buggies are narrower to be able to pass through doors. Tandems are generally wider in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot as well as a toddler seats.

Do you have children?

Having a younger sibling can feel like an enormous responsibility initially, particularly when you must tend to the infant. They may be a bit irritated if they are placed in a baby carrier as you push the older one along and having a double buggy from birth can make things easier. It can also provide your child with a sense of pride as they become a "big brother or sister" and help them get used to their new role.

Double buggies that are side-by-side are often considered to be the best choice for twins because they allow both children to enjoy the same view, however they can be heavy and heavy. The Leclerc B-AGILE DUAL is a compact double stroller double buggy with a unique frame that expands in width and can accommodate two seats fixed. It also comes with a variety of configuration options including using the second seat for an infant bassinet.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who love to explore. This clever buggy can start off as a single pushchair and is then convertible into a double by adding a second seat, a carrycot or a car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain, and it comes with many thoughtful features that are sure to ensure that everyone is happy.

Do you require a travel system for your business?

Double buggies are ideal for transporting your children around in comfort but they're not a necessary purchase for every family. You could use a single stroller, with a few attachments, such as baby carriers and toddler straps that allow your child and you to ride on their backs or in front.

If you decide to go with a double buggy there are three types to choose from: side-by-side or tandem, and convertible. Side-by-side buggies have the two seats near each other, which means your children will be able to see each one another. However, they are generally larger than a single pushchair, and are difficult to maneuver between kerbs. Tandem buggies offer a more compact twin stroller alternative, with one seat in the front and one in the rear, but they are still long and heavy to push.

Convertible double buggies are fantastic because they let you convert your stroller to double buggy by attaching an infant bassinet or car seat to the frame. This allows you to keep your infant snuggled comfortably in their car seat until they're ready to transition into the main buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is an excellent example of this - it's suitable for twins or a toddler and baby or even three kids with the addition of the optional PiggyBack board.

When your children get older and more mobile, you can use double buggys to accompany them on cycling trips or other day trips where they might prefer to walk. It's important to keep in mind that they might not always want to be in a buggy and can easily be tired and disgruntled on longer outings.

Before you make the decision to buy a double buggy at the time of birth make sure you take a look at the above factors and your family's specific circumstances. A sturdy and reliable double stroller can simplify life especially if you need to navigate through busy streets or overcrowded shopping centers.
