We spoke to Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options, age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space. A must-have for families with active children This buggy will grow with your family from twins through to toddlers. It's lightweight and has great maneuverability and is able to tackle difficult terrain with ease. What tandem double buggy of buggy do you want? Double buggys are perfect for transporting up to two children at the same time, even if they are not the same age. They can also be used as prams and come with a reclining mechanism within each seat, allowing your children can sit or lie down in various positions. Many of them also have plenty of storage space to store everything from snacks and drinks to wipes and nappies. They're usually lightweight they fold easily and are small enough to fit in your car's boot. If you drive a lot it's important to make sure the buggy is easy to manoeuvre using the folded wheels, and to take out and into your boot. You might have seen this type of double buggy on other mothers strollers or even in one as a child. They're great for twins who are older or who want to keep up with you. They also come in various seating options, including 'cinema seats'. They're usually easy to steer and, if you decide to go for a model with soft suspension, you can make light work of kerbs. Tandem buggies are a popular option because they're more maneuverable than a side-by-side. The second seat is positioned behind the first, rather than on the top. The seats are usually wider and bulkier than a side-by-side, so you should check that they will fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins or a toddler and a baby or three kids with the addition of a buggy. 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 a lot of flexibility and a very high cost of resale. They're generally easy to steer, come with large storage bins and can handle uneven surfaces. Some even have an integrated ride-on board that can be used as “cinema seating” for your older child. Do you have twins? Double buggys are the most efficient way to transport your children, regardless of whether they are twins or older siblings. There are two types of double buggy – side-byside buggies that let your children are seated side by side and tandem buggies in which one child is higher than the other. Both buggies can accommodate two seats fixed. However side-by-side buggies tend to be narrower to fit through doors. Tandems are generally more spacious overall. They can also accommodate a carrycot as well as a toddler seat. Do you have a toddler? At first the idea of having a younger sibling may feel like an overwhelming amount of responsibility, especially if you are also caring for the infant. A double buggy can also help children to feel included when you put them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It can also provide your child with an immense sense of pride when they get to be 'big brother or sister' and help them settle into their new role. Side-by-side buggies can be a great choice for twins, since both children will have the same view. However they're heavy and heavy. The Leclerc B-AGILE DUAL is a compact double buggy with a unique frame which expands widthways and can accommodate two seats fixed. It also comes with a variety of configuration options including using the second seat for a bassinet. Alternatively, we recommend alternatively, we recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer for families that love to explore. This buggy is clever and can start with an individual pushchair, but can be converted into a double, taking the place of a second seat, carrycot or car seat (depending on the model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it features numerous thoughtful features that will keep everyone content. Do you require a business travel system? Double buggies can be a great way to transport your children safely. However they aren't necessary for every family. Depending on your lifestyle and the age gap between your children, you may be able to make do with a single stroller and certain attachments such as toddler harnesses and baby carriers which allow you to transport your child on their back or in front of you. There are three kinds of double buggies: tandem, side-by-side, and convertible. The two seats are positioned parallel to each other, so your children will be able to be able to see each other. They are wider than a single stroller and may be difficult to navigate around kerbs. Tandem buggies are small that has one seat at the front and another at the back. However, they can be heavy and lengthy to push. Convertible double buggies allow you to transform one stroller into a double buggy by attaching a bassinet or infant car seat to the frame. This way, you can keep your infant snuggled safely in their car seat until they're ready to move into the main buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is an excellent example of this. It's suitable for twins, a baby and toddler or even three children with the addition of the optional PiggyBack board. When your children become older and more capable, you can use a double buggy to accompany them on bicycle rides or for day trips in which they prefer to walk. It's important to keep in mind that they might not always desire to be in a buggy and could easily be tired and disgruntled when they are on longer excursions. So, before you make the decision to buy a double stroller from the beginning be sure to think about the above points and the particular circumstances of your family. A durable and reliable double buggy can make your life simpler, especially when you have to navigate busy streets or crowded malls.
