Baby prams

Choosing the right baby pram can feel overwhelming — there are dozens of styles, features, and safety considerations. This article walks you through everything you need to know: the types of prams, what features matter, safety tips, maintenance, and smart buying advice so you can pick the one that fits your family and lifestyle. What is a baby pram?

Baby prams

A baby pram (also called a stroller or pushchair in some places) is a wheeled device designed to transport infants and toddlers. While "pram" traditionally refers to a carriage-style bassinet ideal for newborns who need to lie flat, modern prams span a broad range of designs and functions — from lightweight umbrella strollers to full travel systems. Types of prams and who they’re best for Full-size pram / stroller (travel system) Large, sturdy, often compatible with car seats. Good for parents who want a long-lasting, all-purpose option from newborn through toddler years. Carrycot pram / bassinet pram Designed for newborns to lie flat. Ideal for early months, especially for long walks or if you want baby to sleep comfortably outdoors. Lightweight / umbrella stroller Compact and easy to fold — great for travel, public transport, or quick errands. Best for babies older than 6 months (check manufacturer guidance). Jogging stroller Three-wheeled with suspension and hand brakes for active parents who jog or hike. Not ideal for newborns unless it reclines fully and meets safety guidelines. Compact / travel stroller A middle ground between full-size and umbrella models; often designed to airline carry-on dimensions. Double / tandem pram For twins or siblings close in age. Comes in side-by-side or front-and-back configurations. Key features to consider Safety features 5-point harness (preferred for secure positioning) Reliable brakes (foot or hand) Lockable front wheels (for jogging or rough terrain) Reflective trims for visibility in low light Recline and newborn compatibility Newborns need to lie flat or have a fully reclinable seat. Check weight and age limits. Wheels and suspension Larger wheels and good suspension = smoother ride on uneven surfaces. Smaller wheels are fine for urban use but struggle off-road. Weight and foldability If you’ll carry it upstairs or lift it into cars often, test the folded size and weight. One-hand folding is a big convenience. Storage and basket size Look for an accessible, sturdy basket for diaper bags, shopping, or groceries. Car-seat compatibility Travel systems let you click an infant car seat into the pram. Confirm model compatibility or use universal adapters. Adjustable handlebar Useful for parents of different heights to avoid back strain. Sun/rain protection A large, extendable canopy with UPF protection and a peek-a-boo window is practical. Safety checklist before you buy and use Follow age and weight limits in the manual. Always use the harness — even for short trips. Engage the brakes when stationary; use wheel locks on slopes. Avoid hanging heavy bags from the handle — it can tip the pram. Check for recalls on any model you buy (especially with used prams). Never leave a child unattended in a pram. Secure bassinets and convertibles properly according to instructions.
