Taking Baby for a Stroll

For new parents, choosing the right stroller is very important. There are many choices out there that can leave you confused. The main thing is, you want to choose the best stroller for your baby and of course, for you. When considering a new stroller, you want to be sure that it suits your lifestyle. Look for the following points to help you choose:

• Is it too heavy? Heavy might mean quality, but it might also mean impossible to shift!
• Is it safe? Check the brakes - make sure that the brakes and the safety harness work and is easy to operate.
• Is it easy to steer? Whether fixed wheel or swivel, your stroller must be maneuverable without pulling a muscle!
• Does it fold? Most modern strollers have a simple fold down feature, but check the fold size, will it fit in the trunk of your car?
• Is it comfortable? Look for strollers that have a range of seating positions, from lying down to sitting up. Check the head support too.
• Is there any storage space? You may find that not all strollers come with storage baskets underneath. In which case, you might have to buy a separate storage basket/bag to suit you.
• Can I run with it? Depending on your exercise routine, you might want to look for a 3 wheeled stroller with excellent maneuverability.

We've chosen a few strollers that each have something good to offer :
