Safety

Newborns need to be secured as much as possible. A stroller or pram equipped with safety features will ensure that your baby is secure and comfortable while traveling. A stroller or pram must include a break that is working, a 5-point harness (2 shoulder straps; 2 waist straps; and a crotch belt) and a wrist tether for the person driving it. Check that the pram you choose meets these standards.

Look for a pram that allows your baby to ride in the recommended lie-flat position. This position supports the baby and helps prevent a potentially dangerous spinal curve that can cause spinal problems. It reduces the risk of SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Syndrome) or asphyxiation by keeping airways free. Most prams that are used from birth will have the seat unit, which will recline into a lie-flat pram position for younger babies and then transform into a pushchair unit for older children.

The suspension on the pram is crucial because it affects how smooth the ride. A pram that has lots of spring suspension will be more expensive, but it is worth the extra expense if you plan to use your pram each day for a few years or longer.

Always read the instructions and look at the warning labels on your pram or stroller. When not using it, place your stroller in a safe area away from potential dangers like bicycles, traffic or other people. It is recommended to remove any bags or items from the handles as they could cause your baby to become trapped or even suffocate.

A pram or stroller should never be left unattended with a child in it even if they are asleep. They can get wriggling and become stuck or the pram might roll away and they could be injured. It is also not recommended to hang bags or other things off the handles as they can fall and strike your baby's head.

Comfort

It is crucial that babies are able to lie flat, as this promotes lung and back development. Cocoons or carriers are available on many prams. They create a cozy environment that is a comfortable place for your baby and can be detached easily from the frame. Some seats, like the bucket-style seat on egg2, don't recline completely flat, but offer an enjoyable ride for your child.

Some prams have an additional bassinet or seat for a newborn. This lets you easily switch between the sitting and sleeping positions based on the needs of your baby. This is sometimes referred to as a "travel pram system" and is the first configuration that you should try out with your baby.

Choose a stroller with two straps for the shoulder, ideally padded and a five-point safety harness. It should fit your baby's body comfortably. Make sure there aren't any gaps, or loose areas, where fingers could be trapped. Also, ensure that the buckles are easy for older children to operate. You should also consider whether you want a Pram For newborn that is oriented towards parents. It is ideal for keeping an ear on your child and makes them feel more secure having their parents around.

Some prams, such as the Graco Near2Me have a handy raise and lower feature that can bring your baby up to your face at the push of a button, which our parents testers really loved! This is a great way to keep connected to your baby, particularly if they are asleep. If you are seeking an infant travel system that is compatible with the car capsule you choose you won't have to wake your baby to switch between the pram and car.

Convenience

It is essential to take into account your baby's needs for transportation when buying a newborn pram. Some prams come with a carrycot or bassinet, that allows your baby to lie flat (essential for their development of their spine and breathing) while others have seats that recline to a lie-flat position. It is also a good idea to check out the other accessories the pram comes with, such as a changing bag and footmuff that are essential to keep your baby warm in colder months.

However, it is important to keep in mind that you will need to wait until your child is old enough to sit up independently before you change them from a car capsule to a pushchair.

Our parent tester found that the ability to raise or lower the seat of her 10-month-old son was a great feature. A good example is the Graco Near2Me which can lower to allow your little one to 'glide into your arms at the press of the button, and remain in constant eye contact.

Make sure that your newborn pram has a sturdy base with wheels that can withstand potholes and bumps. Ensure that you can fold it down with ease and ensure that the safety harness is in good working order, fits comfortably and securely (five-point rather than three-point) and is able to be adjusted as your child grows. You should also be able to keep changing and shopping bags inside the basket beneath (although keep in mind that loading the pram with excessive weight can cause it to tip over). If you're not sure which model to pick, check out a variety of models at the local retailer.
