This high-end pushchair is perfect for babies due to its luxurious weaved fabric and ergonomic support. It's also easy to set up and can easily manage narrow shop aisles.

Newborns should be able to lie flat, so opt for a model with either a carrycot or car seat/carrycot combination suitable from birth. Some have a reversible unit so you can choose to have your baby either face either you or the world.

Safety

The pushchair, also known as a stroller or buggy, is one of the most frequently used baby products. Safety is a top priority when choosing a pushchair. Choose a five-point safety harness. This harness holds the child in the seat with five points that join in the central locking system, two across the shoulders and two between the hips and the legs. This system will prevent the child from slipping out of the seat in the event that the car tips over, or when driving up a steep kerb.

A carrycot or infant car seat/ pram & carrycot combination is essential for newborns since they need the ability to lay flat, which helps protect their spinal development and lets their airways breathe fully. This is important because it decreases the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome. Babies born today should not travel for long distances using an infant pushchair that does not have this facility even if they are able to be pushed in a reclining seat unit.

It is also recommended to purchase a stroller that is suitable from the moment of birth. This means that the pushchair is compatible with a lie-flat carrycot or infant car seat / pram and also has a fully reversible and reversible seat to allow the baby to be able to face either the parent or the world.

Finally, the wheels of the pushchair must be robust and have a an excellent suspension that reduces bumps and vibrations aswell as brake pedals that can easily be reached. Many pushchairs come with pneumatic tyres that can absorb shocks more effectively than standard tyres and can run on rough terrain.

Accessories such as shopping baskets and pram changing bags or raincovers are useful, especially if you are running errands while your baby is tucked in. Many pushchairs have a hood which can be put over the baby's face to shield it from sun or the wind. Certain hoods are adjustable to suit the conditions.

Comfort

You'll want a pushchair for your newborn that is comfortable for both the baby and the parent. This could mean cushioned seats as well as a pushchair that is easy to maneuver, but also sturdy enough to stand up to rough terrain. Consider features like storage and protection against weather. If you intend to use the pushchair for jogging or off-road adventures, you'll need an all-terrain foldable pushchair with larger wheels, designed to provide your child the most comfort on the roughest terrain.

The ideal pushchair for a newborn will be a pram or travel system that has an cot with a carry-on, allowing your infant to sleep in their normal lie-flat position which is essential for the development of a healthy spine and lung. Some pushchairs labeled "suitable from birth" require that your child sit up independently. Check this before you make the purchase.

A bassinet is an alternative, providing a small baby cot to relax in, while remaining safe and secure in the pushchair. These seats are typically more expensive than a pushchair or travel system. But, if your child is content in this seat, it could be worth the expense.

Many pushchairs allow you to 'face the seat' towards you for reassurance or bonding. Or away from you to explore the world. They are often referred to by the terms parents-facing or world-facing pushchairs. Some will have a single-to double pushchair option as well that means they can be modified to accommodate two children without the requirement for a separate double frame for the pushchair walker.

On hot days you'll need a parasol for your pushchair to protect your child from the sun and avoid overheating. The majority of manufacturers offer this in a pushchair bundle or sell it separately, so look out for this. In colder weather you might want to add a footmuff, that will keep your baby warm and cozy. They come in various styles, and most can be washed by a machine.

Style

When shopping for a new pushchair, it is crucial to consider the finer details, especially because it will be one of your most frequently used baby products. For instance, certain models are designed for use on rough terrain and have bigger wheels and a heavy duty frame. Some are lighter and easy to move particularly when folded. Some come with adjustable seat cushions, an extensible SPF canopy and a footmuff for colder weather.

It is recommended that you lay newborns flat on their backs, as this helps with spinal development and opens their airways. This is best accomplished with the use of a carrycot and pram or a travel system. Some pushchairs include a carrycot or seat unit that reclines fully. These are suitable for babies from birth. Be sure to check if this feature is available, as some descriptions only provide the option of reclining, but do not mention a lie-flat seat.

Most pushchairs offer the choice of a parent facing or world facing seat unit to allow you to have your child face you for reassurance and bonding or away from you so that they can discover the world around them. Some models even have both options simultaneously!

Many pushchairs come with a variety of accessories, like baskets and shopping trays that simplify the lives of parents. Some have an integrated sunshade that is usually made of UPF or SPF 50+ fabrics to help shield the child from the sun. Other popular accessories include parasols that are fixed to the frame of the pushchair or sunmuffs that are often included or sold separately.

Budget

It's important to take time to research your options and stick to your budget. It's important to consider that the pram will be there for a lengthy time, and it's also the most used item, so you need to ensure you buy one that is suitable for your needs and is comfortable for you and your child.

You may want to think about purchasing a travel system, that includes a carry cot and a seat. This is the safest way to transport a newborn because it makes sure they sleep flat. This is ideal for securing their spinal development and opening their airways. Newborns should always be transported in a lie-flat position until they reach six months old.

Some pushchairs are suitable for babies and include the ability to fully recline to a flat position. This is essential since it protects the newborn's spine as it grows and allows them to sleep comfortably on long journeys. It is important to remember that not all pushchairs labeled "lie-flat" actually provide a completely flat position. You should check this prior to purchasing.

Consider a model that has an ample basket that can hold everything your baby needs and other things. The basket should be easy to access and you will be able to get your shopping in without struggling or having to remove your child from the carrycot.

Wheels are also different between models. Some models have wheels that can be locked, swivelled, or fixed to aid in maneuvering the pushchair. Some have larger wheels which are more sturdy on rough terrain or are fitted PU tyres that are designed to be puncture-resistant.

Be aware of the dimensions of the handlebar, and whether it is adjustable to your height. It is also important to ensure that the pushchair folds down to fit into your car, boot or on public transport. Some models, like the Joie Vinca has a one-handed fold which was highly rated by our MFM home testers and was awarded a Gold Award in previous MadeForMums awards.
