Choosing Between a Pram and Travel System

If you're looking for an infant stroller that grows with your family, an e-travel system is a great option. They usually come with the car capsule, bassinet or carrycot for infants and typically include an extra pushchair pram seat for older babies.

You can simply click in and out, without waking your baby. Here's why many parents are in love with these devices.

Convenience

A travel system provides the convenience of being able to move your child from the car into the pram without causing disturbance. This is ideal for those who need to rush around to do errands or go shopping. This also lets you take advantage of the park walks and road excursions without having to swap equipment in and out for each scenario.

Some travel systems provide the option of a parent-facing or reversible pushchairs to keep an eye on your child while they sleep, making sure they are safe and comfortable. A lot of them have additional features, like extra padding, ergonomic support and storage baskets, making them an ideal option for infants.

Additionally, some travel systems can accommodate twins or a third child in the bassinet or seat. This is a fantastic option to reduce the number of compact strollers and car seats you need in your home when you have many children.

Many of the top brands of prams have adapters for infant car seats, which allow you to snap in an appropriate capsule and use it as stroller compact. This is a more affordable option than buying a separate pram newborn, baby car seat and bassinet or carrycot.

A travel system bundle will provide all the items you need to enjoy your outings starting at birth, including a compatible infant car seat that fits into the bassinet of the pram or carrycot, as well as an upright pushchair newborn seat. Some have additional accessories such as changing bags, rain covers and coffee cup holders to ensure you are prepared for any trip.

It's also important to know the weight restrictions as some can be too heavy, which can impact safety and functionality. Avoid this by buying a travel system which is suitable for your child, and sticking to the recommended weight limit. If you aren't sure then consult a professional at your local store for advice.
