Looking for the best stroller for your little one? There is a lot to consider. Strollers are less complex than they seem. It is all about knowing what you need for your particular use and lifestyle. Here are some things to consider when purchasing a stroller.
Works With Carseat?: At least while your baby is still little, this is important. Buying a stroller that can hold a carseat will save you room in your shopping cart while grocery shopping. Although, depending on what style carseat you have, it may sit on the seat portion of the shopping cart with no problem. These strollers are called travel systems.
The One Hand Test: Say you’re getting ready to go into Walmart and you have to open the stroller with the diaper bag and your purse falling off of your stroller also while holding your baby on your hip. Can you open the stroller with one hand? You will thank us later for making sure your stroller passes the one hand test!
Details Can Be Customized: Having a cup holder, small compartments, and other accessories are nice, but are not completely necessary. If you think you need those, you can buy an inexpensive stroller and buy the extras separately.
Best Lifestyle Stroller For You: What type of lifestyle do you live? If you are constantly outside, you’ll need a jogging stroller. The fixed front wheel jogging strollers are better for going at faster paces and are less likely to flip.
If you are using a stroller for only going to the mall, grocery shopping, or just to take your little one out for a little bit; the standard and lightweight strollers are your best option. Ones that are rear facing are better to see and interact with your baby. These also make the baby feel better about not having to face the world alone.
Stick To Your Budget: Like we said about the details, you can customize. Buying a simple, but durable stroller is great. Then you can add on other accessories that you feel are necessary for you!
Picking out the best stroller can be time consuming, but finding one you and your baby both like and enjoy will make it all worth while! Good luck finding a stroller for your baby to explore the world in!
Love,
