Prams and pushchairs are multifunctional, versatile partners of caregivers and parents. They are the co-pilots for your child's journey.

A pram for newborns is a must for newborns and babies. It has an incredibly sturdy, deep carrycot with soft and safe walls.

A pram is typically equipped with a bassinet, but it can be transformed into an infant stroller seat once baby is ready.

Safety

Newborns are extremely fragile and should be kept as safe as is possible. Purchasing a stroller or pram with safety features will ensure that your baby is secure and secure during travel. The most essential requirements for any Pram for Newborn or stroller include a functioning brake, a five-point safety harness (2 shoulder straps, two waist straps, and the crotch strap) and a wrist tether strap for the person pushing the pram. Check that your chosen pram meets these standards before purchasing.

Find a pram that allows your infant to be seated in the suggested lie-flat position. This position is supportive for your baby and prevents the development of a risky curvature in their spine which could lead to problems with their spine. It reduces the chance of SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Syndrome) or asphyxiation by ensuring that the airways are clear. Most prams that can be used from birth will include an infant seat that can recline into a lie-flat pram mode for younger babies and then transform into a pushchair cheap unit for older children.

The suspension of the pram is crucial because it can affect how smooth the ride is. A pram that has a lot of suspension is likely to be more costly but it may be worth it to purchase this feature if you are planning to use your pram daily for a couple of years or more.

Always read the instructions and carefully read the warning labels on your pram or stroller. When not in use, keep your stroller away from any potential hazards like bicycles, traffic or other people. It is also a good idea to remove any bags or items from the handles as they could cause your baby to be caught or suffocate.

A stroller or pram should never be left unattended with a baby inside, even if they are asleep. They could wriggle into the pram and get trapped, or it could be pushed away and cause injuries. Hanging bags or other items on the handles isn't a good thing since they could fall and strike your child on the head.

Comfort

Possibility of lying flat seating is an absolute must for newborns, since it aids in better lung and back development. Many prams have cocoons or carrycots that creates a cosy nest-like atmosphere for your baby and is able to be removed from the frame. Others, such as the egg2's bucket style seat do not recline to lay flat, but they still provide a comfy ride for your baby.

Some prams also feature a separate bassinet, newborn inset or stroller seat so you can easily switch between sitting and sleeping modes based on your baby's needs. It is commonly described as a ”travel system and is the very first configuration you should try with your baby.

Choose a lightweight stroller with two shoulder straps that are ideally padded and a five-point safety harness. It must fit your child's body comfortably. Be sure to check for gaps, or loose areas where fingers can be trapped. Also make sure the buckles are easy for older children to use. You should also consider if you'd like an adult-facing pram. It is ideal to keep an eye on your child and helps them feel more secure seeing their parents.

Our parents who tested the product loved the feature of certain prams, like the Graco Near2Me which lets you raise your baby by pressing a button. This is a great way to maintain eye contact with your baby and keep in touch, particularly when they're sleeping. If you're looking for a travel system that is compatible with the car capsule you pick you won't have to wake your baby to switch between the pram and the car.

Convenience

It is essential to consider the needs of your baby's transportation when you purchase a new baby's pram. Some prams come with an infant bassinet, carrycot or a seat that can recline to an upright position. This is crucial for your baby's development of the spine and breathing. It's also a good idea to look at what other accessories the pram comes with like a changing bag and footmuff which are essential to keep your baby warm in the colder winter months.

It's also worth noting that some prams and strollers can be transformed into travel systems permitting you to connect a car capsule with the frame using adaptors, to allow you to easily transfer your baby between the car and the pushchair without having to wake them up. These are great if your lifestyle is busy or you don't have enough space in your car boot to accommodate a pram. However, it is important to be aware that you'll need wait until your baby is old enough to sit independently before you convert them from a car capsule to pushchair.

Another feature you may want to consider is the possibility of raising and lowering the infant's seat from a low setting to a high setting, which keeps eye contact with them and keeps them close to you, which our tester for parents found very useful for her 10-month old boy! One good example is the Graco Near2Me, which can be lowered to allow your child to 'glide into your arms by pressing a button and stay in constant eye contact.

You should also be able to store shopping and changing bags in the basket underneath (although be aware that loading the pram with too much weight could cause it to tip over). If you are unsure of which one to pick, check various models at the local store.
