Strollers

Finding the right baby stroller can make our life as a new parent easier in many ways and there are a few things to consider before purchasing.

How old is your baby? Are they a newborn, infant or toddler? And are you looking for single or twin prams?

Next, think about what size stroller you need, what your budget is, how comfortable the stroller should be, how much it should weigh and how compact it needs to be. Plus, when you will use the stroller the most? Will you need to travel with it and how will you store it?

Budget is also a big decider when it comes to buying baby stroller and Mother’s Choice has an affordable range for you to choose from at all budgets.

Safety is the number one consideration for most parents - so check out the safety features like the brake and the tether strap of the strollers you are looking at, to check you are satisfied with them.

If your baby is older, it might be time to upgrade to a stroller that suits your new requirements. Mother’s Choice strollers have options that grow with your child, as well as particular strollers that work well for older babies.

Here are some questions you should think about:

What's our budget?

Budget is so hugely important and when it comes to baby strollers, the price range is huge. But you don’t necessarily need to spend thousands of dollars to get a good quality stroller with all of the features you need.

How much weight can it handle?

The larger, bulkier prams can be really heavy to fold and lift into your boot or wherever you are storing them. If for whatever reason you aren’t able to lift heavier weights, a lightweight stroller or umbrella stroller is a far better option for you. They’re easy to fold, move and store when not in use.

How long will we be using this stroller?

All strollers have weight limits at the upper end and some strollers aren’t suitable for newborns. If this is a second stroller as you are now in the toddler stage make sure the upper weight limit is appropriate for your child. If you are buying a lightweight stroller for newborns, check that it has recline positions to allow baby to lay flat.

Do we want all the extra features?

Really this is about asking yourself what features are important to you in a stroller. Do you want a large storage basket for all your shopping/bags? A peekaboo window in the canopy so you can check on your baby while they are sleeping? An adjustable handlebar? You need the features in your stroller to match your lifestyle and needs.

The Mother’s Choice range of strollers is vast, with models to suit different budgets and needs to make being out with your baby easy and enjoyable!
