When you are deciding on the perfect double buggy, there are plenty of things to consider. Katie Billingsley, a postnatal retreat expert from the Fourth Trimester, gave us her tips on everything from seating options and age groups, to folding mechanisms and storage.

A must-have purchase for families with active children, this buggy grows with your family from twins through to toddlers. It is lightweight with great maneuverability and is able to handle uneven terrain easily.

What style of buggy do want?

A double buggy is ideal for transporting two kids, not necessarily of the same age, side-by-side. They can also serve as prams and come with recline mechanisms in each seat so your children can sit or lie down in different positions. Many of them also have plenty of storage space for everything from snacks and drinks to wipes and nappies. They are usually light they fold easily and are small enough to fit in the car boot. If you travel a lot amount, it's essential to check that the buggy can be easily moved with the folded wheels in your car boot, and then removed.

The most well-known type of double buggy is the side by side, which you've likely seen on other moms pushchairs, or perhaps ridden in as a child. They are perfect for twins or older siblings who want to keep pace with you. They also come in a variety of seating configurations and styles, including 'cinema chairs'. They're usually pretty easy to drive and, if you decide to go for a model with soft suspension, they can be a breeze to get rid of the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are simpler to turn than side-by sides, are also popular. The second seat is placed behind the first, rather than on the top. They're usually bigger than a side-byside and can be heavy when folded, so it's important to check they'll fit through doors and public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler, an infant or three children with the addition of an extra buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single-to-double' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They tend to be more expensive than side-by-sides and tandem buggies, but they offer a lot of versatility and a good resale value. They're generally easy to steer, come with a huge storage basket and can handle uneven surfaces. Some come with a built-in ride-on board for older children and 'cinema seats'.

Do you have twins?

If your children are twins or siblings of different age groups, a double buggie is the most efficient way to transport them around. There are two main kinds of double infant stroller buggy - side-by-side buggies where your children are seated together, and tandem buggies where one child is placed above the other. Both can be fitted with two fixed seats, but side-by-side buggies tend to be narrower in size to fit through doors. Tandems tend to be larger in general. They can also accommodate a carrycot and toddler seat.

Do you have a toddler?

At first, having a younger sibling could feel like a lot of responsibility, especially if you're caring for the infant. A double buggy can also make it easier for children to feel included when you place them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It will also help your child settle into their new role as big brother or sister'.

The side-by-side double buggies could be a good option for twins since both children will share the same view. However they're heavy and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE by Leclerc that features an innovative frame that expands in width to accommodate two fixed seats and offers various configuration options, including the second seat being used as a bassinet or infant carrier.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who are active and love to explore. This clever buggy is a single pushchair that can be converted into a double by adding an additional seat or carrycot (depending on model). Its super-smooth ride is ideal for rough terrain and it has lots of thoughtful features to keep everyone comfortable.

Do you require a travel system?

Double buggies are ideal to transport your children around in comfort, but they're not a necessary purchase for every family. Based on your lifestyle and the age gap between your kids you might be able to do with just a single stroller and some attachments, such as baby carriers and toddler harnesses that let you carry your child on their back or in front of you.

If you decide to go with a double buggy there are three kinds to choose from: side by side, tandem and convertible. The two seats are placed side-by-side, so your children will be able to see each other. However, these are typically larger than a single pushchair, and can be tricky to maneuver around kerbs. Tandem buggies are compact with a seat at the front and a second one at the back. However they can be heavy and lengthy to push.

Convertible double buggies permit you to convert a single stroller into a double buggy by attaching an infant car seat to the frame. This way, you can keep your baby comfortably in their car seat until they're ready to transition into the main buggy seat. The Uppababy V2 is an excellent example of this - it can be used with twins as well as a toddler and one or more children using the optional PiggyBack Board.

As your children grow older and more able, you can use double buggys to accompany them on bicycle rides or for day trips where they may prefer to walk. It's important to remember that your children might not always be comfortable in a stroller and might get tired and angry on longer outings.

Before you decide to purchase a double stroller, think about the above factors and your family's unique circumstances. A solid and reliable double stroller will make life much easier especially if you need to navigate through busy streets or crowded shopping centres.
