Types of Prams - Select suitable one for your Child

When choosing a pram, you should ensure that it’s not only a safe model but also that it’s the right fit for your child.

Here are the common prams you’ll encounter:

1. Flatback prams
   1. Four-wheeler, flatback prams are the most common option for newborn babies.
   2. It allows your baby to be safely placed on their back and for you to have eye-to-eye contact with them at all times.
   3. Some of these prams are convertible to upright positions when your baby develops the strength to support themselves in a seated position at around six months of age.
2. Foldable prams
   1. While some prams are more rigid, others can be folded for easy storage in your home or car. These prams, while lighter and with more moving parts, provide an enhanced level of flexibility with your travel options.
3. Traveller units
   1. These prams come with a removable carrier or bassinet that makes it easy for you to transition your baby between the pram and the house or car.
   2. Care must be taken with their mechanisms to ensure that your baby is safe when placed back into the pram.
4. Twin prams and double prams
   1. Twin prams are designed to accommodate two babies or toddlers of the same age. Their considerably wider dimensions should be considered before you buy.
   2. Double prams might be configured to accommodate your children behind or above one another, and these are usually best-suited to babies and toddlers of different ages.
