Choosing a stroller is one of the most important decisions a parent makes. Above all, it must be safe, maneuverable, and comfortable for both the baby and their caregivers. Because purchasing this item is one of the most expensive, it's worth preparing accordingly. Choosing the perfect stroller depends primarily on:
- the age of the child,
- terrain in the place of residence,
- parents' lifestyle (including their physical activity, frequent travel),
- number of children transported.
The dimensions and weight of this element of the layette are equally important. This is crucial when living on a high floor in an apartment building without an elevator. This is especially true since the final weight of the entire package also includes additional accessories , the insert , the sleeping bag , toys , and shopping, which are often conveniently left in the lower part of the stroller. The lightest frames are made of aluminum. The dimensions should also be adapted to the car trunk so that it can easily fit during short and long trips. A good quality stroller must also be easy to fold and unfold.

Deep strollers, pushchairs and 2-in-1 strollers
Deep strollers , also known as bassinets, are suitable for babies up to about 6 months of age. This is the age at which a baby spends most of their time lying down. When a baby turns six months old, they begin to try to sit up independently and roll onto their tummy. This signals to parents that it's time to buy a stroller . Comfortable models allow the baby to watch what's happening on the walk and also take short naps while seated, so it's crucial that the stroller has a stable yet sufficiently soft backrest.
Multifunctional strollers, such as 2-in-1s , are very popular, combining the advantages of a pram and a pushchair. Such a hybrid model will last a child for a long time and will "grow" with them. New parents often opt for 3-in-1 strollers (with an additional car seat) or even 4-in-1s (with a base for attaching a car seat).
Jogging strollers
A jogging stroller is an ideal solution for parents who value an active lifestyle. It also performs well on difficult surfaces (e.g., gravel, forest, cobblestones) requiring greater maneuverability and wheel traction. However, before purchasing this type of stroller, it's worth consulting a pediatric physiotherapist, who will assess whether it will be safe for your child's specific stage of skeletal development.
Twin strollers
When two children enter the world at the same time, a twin stroller is essential. It's double the joy, but also double the responsibility, especially during daily walks. Therefore, a twin stroller must, above all, be safe, lightweight, with maneuverable wheels, adjustable seats, and safety bumpers. These models are also suitable for siblings with a small age gap.
