Making travel with your baby a breeze

If the words flexibility, long-lasting and comfortable sound like music to your ears, a travel system is perfect for you and your bambino. Pushchair travel systems vary in what they come with, from complete travel systems that include everything you need to travel with your newborn, to a 2-in-1 travel system which usually involves a stroller with a seat unit and carrycot, or a 3-in-1 travel system which also includes a car seat.

Use the carrycot or lie-flat position on the seat unit until your baby is around 6 months old. Then, you can transfer them from a carrycot or a lie-flat position to the seat in a fully upright or any reclined position for their comfort. Changing from carrycot to seat unit couldn't be easier as we have chosen the very best and most convenient travel systems for our customers. Some are done with just one click, whilst others transform into the seat without needing an extra unit.

What should I consider?

One of the most important things to contemplate is your lifestyle. How often will you use your buggy? Where will you be going with it? Will it fit in the boot of your car? These are questions you should be asking, when it comes to making your decision.

If you’re an active family, you’ll want to consider purchasing a travel system that has “all-terrain” features. Most buggies include suspension too, for a smooth-sailing ride outdoors. More importantly, children, whatever age they are, can be extremely messy! So, look for a travel system, where covers are easily detachable for washing. We recommend taking whichever pushchair you’re considering, for a test spin. A quick wheel around the store will tell you if it’s easy to manoeuvre and how heavy it is.

Is a travel system worth it?

Pros

• Move your tot from car to pushchair without waking them up
• One-time purchase: you can get a pushchair, car seat and carrycot all in one
• Forward-facing to keep an eye on them
• An assortment of styles, prices, and configurations

Cons

• Need to purchase another car seat when your baby outgrows their first one
• Models vary so difficult to fit the car seat to the pushchair frame (try before you buy)
• Bulkier than the typical stroller

We love travel systems and the ease they bring. However, this mustn’t be at the cost of your little one’s security. So first, be sure to check the travel system you’re buying is safe. With our tips and advice, you should feel well-equipped to make an informed decision. Happy strolling!
