iCandy - Prams and Pushchairs

Prams are among the most popular baby products. They are durable and maintenance is simple. They have a good chance for circularity, if policy interventions ensure that second-hand prams are refurbished and re-distributed back to parents.

Prams can be used by newborns or babies up to 6 months old. They usually come with a bassinet or carrycot, and lie flat. Some prams can be converted and can be fitted with car seats too, so they're known as travel systems.

Parasol

Parasols are umbrellas which clip onto the frame of the pushchair. They provide shade for your child and prevent heatstroke. They are usually made from SPF/UPF 50+ materials and can also offer protection against light rain. If your stroller doesn't come with one, you can purchase one. You can also use the shade shades that attach to your single prams or carrycots and block the any overhead sun.

You can also add the footmuff, which is a soft fleece blanket with a showerproof cover that protects your baby's legs from cold. Many brands sell footmuffs on their own or include them in their pram bundles. It is recommended to select a footmuff that has a quick-release clamp. This makes it simple to attach and remove.

If you plan to take your stroller on rough terrain, then opt for a model with four wheels. They are better at manoeuvring on uneven surfaces and also have larger tyres which can handle rocks and sharper objects. They are a bit heavier than three-wheeled pushchairs but still very light and easy to move.

It is crucial to keep your pushchair in good condition to ensure it runs smoothly and your child is safe. You can clean it using the help of a cloth, warm soapy baby wipes or water. You should also invest in a silicone lubricant to grease the wheel bearings and joints of your pushchair. Secure any loose screws. Consider a pushchair cleaning service where a professional will clean and examine your pushchair to ensure it's functioning in the way it should.

The footmuffs are an excellent way to keep your baby warm during the winter. They're made from fleece, and they're water-resistant. This makes them a perfect option for colder weather. They are also cosy, comfortable and the perfect accessory for your baby. They're also easy to use and are able to be fitted quickly. Make sure that the footmuff fits your baby's size and stroller correctly before using it. Otherwise, it could bunch up or move around.

Footmuffs are a great accessory for any childs pram or stroller particularly if you live in a colder climate. It helps keep your baby's feet warm and cozy during the winter months and is simple to use. You can also alter the temperature simply by closing or opening the zipper. Some brands even have a hood to provide extra protection in bad weather.

Although many parents consider the footmuff as a necessity, it's important to ensure that your baby is ready for it before purchasing it. The newborn needs a firm mattress to support their back and feet, and a footmuff could be uncomfortable for them if it's not soft enough. Some footmuffs are made to last from the time of birth to toddlerhood, and some even have a double zip at the bottom, so that you get more use out of it. This means that they are able to be used for a long time and are a great investment for parents.

Parent facing

Parents love the ability to keep their eyes on their child when they're in the pram that is a direct view of parents. This visual connection can build trust and confidence, and also calm anxious toddlers and infants. It also allows parents to respond quickly to their children's demands, whether it's reassurance or a snack.

Many parents utilize a stroller for their newborns however, as they get older, they could switch to a pushchair. A pram is different from a pushchair in that it typically comes with a carry-cot for newborns and an frame to fix it. A pram can recline and be made forward-facing or parent-facing. A pushchair, on the other hand is typically upright and has no carry cot.

The range of prams and pushchairs has been carefully chosen with your baby in mind. Some of our models feature adjustable seats, so you can recline the seat to allow your baby to nap, and then raise it up again to watch them explore the world. Some of our favorite models also come with sun canopy to shield your child from the elements.

When choosing a stroller be sure that it is easy-to-use and that the brakes work. The chassis should also come with two locking devices to prevent it from folding when in use. Additionally, a good safety harness is vital for protecting your child's seat and prevent them from falling out of the pushchair. Additionally, a pram blanket is frequently useful to keep your baby warm and protected from the weather. They are available in a variety of designs and colours to suit your pushchair.

Ergonomic support

The ergonomic support of prams is an important feature that helps to reduce tension and back pain. It allows parents to focus on their child and not be concerned about aching muscles. This feature also makes it easier for parents to maneuver the stroller in tight spaces or over kerbs. It is especially helpful for taller parents who may have difficulty reaching the handles of smaller pushchairs.

The support is built into the handlebars and is adjusted to match the height of the parent. It is easy to adjust to different body types, and find the most comfortable position for each. In addition, the ergonomic support provides a more natural posture to the parents and helps them to avoid injuries like shoulder and carpal tunnel pain.

A pram or pushchair can be a lifesaver for new parents as it lets them explore the world with their baby. However, it's important to balance time in the pram or stroller with plenty of time for tummy time and physical exercise for the child. Many children are injured by prams or strollers every year and some even require hospital treatment for accidents resulting from these devices. Accidents can happen when strollers tip over or when bags are hooked to handles.

Some prams can convert into a twin pushchair, making them an ideal choice for families with two young babies. These prams are made by several top brands and include features like reclining seat units and raincovers. The inclusion of a ride-on board is also helpful for older toddlers who might get tired of walking.

Ride-on board

New parents require pushchairs and prams. These handy strollers make moving around a breeze, whether you're heading to a toddler and baby group or taking an easy stroll in the park. These strollers are also great for day-to-day excursions and let you spend time with your child.

The age and the needs of your child will determine the best pram or pushchair for your child. For babies and infants, a pram with a carrycot is ideal. They allow them to lie flat, which is important for their lung and spinal development. You can also buy a ride-on board, which lets older children participate in the fun.

If you're looking for a stroller that will expand with your child look into a convertible pushchair. These are ideal for twins and siblings of different age groups. Some models even have a tandem arrangement which makes them easier to maneuver and keep an eye on.

Strollers and prams need regular cleaning to avoid mildew and mould, as well as dust build-up. The majority of the components can be cleaned by vacuuming them or wiping them clean with warm soapy water and an absorbent towel. If you're worried about the fabric of your pushchair, a cleaner spray is a good choice.

Check the tyres of a pushchair, especially if you're using it on rough terrain. The best tyres are comprised of a mixture of PU outer and EVA inner, which replicate the feel of air-tyres but are more durable. You can also include an oarguard and a hand muff to keep your child dry and comfortable. You can also use a stroller organizer to store your baby's essentials. It is also important to check the fold of the stroller to ensure it fits in your car boot and takes up minimal storage space at home.
