how to choose a stroller
Whether you like to take leisurely strolls around the block or jog off the beaten path, your baby stroller will quickly become
one of your most frequently used pieces of gear. You’ll want to take a few things into consideration when looking for the
best stroller for you and your family. Because the right one should feel like a walk in the park, no matter the terrain. Read
on to learn about the many different types of strollers and find the right fit for you.

full size strollers
Also known as a 4-wheel stroller or all-purpose stroller. This style is typically
taller, wider and larger than a compact one. Many full sized strollers can
expand to accommodate multiple children and cover all the basics, with
every bell and whistle a baby (or parent!) could need.
Sun-Safe
Look for an extendable, UPF 50+ canopy that shields kids and babies from
harmful UV rays and unzips at the top for more airflow and angled shade.
Countless Combinations
For some purchases, it’s worth planning ahead: If you’re growing
your family, look for a single stroller that expands to accommodate
up to 3 children, with plenty of positions to ride.
Easy-Access Storage
An extra-large opening at the bottom should fit things like your
heftiest diaper bag, a family picnic, or even a bag of groceries.

compact strollers
A compact stroller—or, lightweight stroller—is similar to a full sized
one, but scaled-down, narrower and weighs significantly less. Typically
these strollers fold up fast when needed, making them great for travel
or busy parents on the go.
Ultra-Lightweight
A good lightweight stroller will weigh in at just under 14 pounds.
Test it: It should be easy to pick up with one arm and might even
include a carry bag for carrying it on the go.
Self-Folding
If speed and ease are important to you, look for a stroller that folds
with a single push of a button, like the Nuna TRVL. This makes storing
it in the car trunk or the entryway a breeze, too.
Easy Handling
One-handed steering makes it a dream to push. Plus, front and
rear-wheel suspension technology provides one smooth ride.

3-wheel strollers
Ideal for active parents, a 3-wheel stroller is designed to tackle
even the toughest roads, protecting your precious cargo from
dips and bumps. Typically this all-terrain stroller sits on larger,
air-filled wheels to ensure a more smooth ride.
Cozy Comfort
Kids spend a lot of adventure time in this stroller, especially if you’re
jogging. Look for a seat with breathable mesh and some padding in the straps
and seats for the ultimate in kid comfort.
Convenient For Every Day
You don’t need to add extra bulk for added performance:
three-wheel strollers should be as easy to fold up as ones with
two or four wheels. Look for one that collapses in one swift motion.
Ready For Anything
Look for nimble, all-terrain tires that are filled with air and
a front-wheel suspension system for the easiest maneuvering.

double strollers
From twins to toddlers, make your life easier with a double stroller. This
style often comes equipped with ample storage space and fits multiple
kiddos at once. Double strollers can come in two different configurations:
front-to-back (also known as a tandem stroller) or side-by-side.
Seamlessly Folds
The Indie stroller folds with just one step and auto-lock
keeps it standing in place for easy storing.
Baby To Big Kid
The Bumbleride Indie stroller comes with adjustable
footrests for infants and deep footwells for toddlers.
Smooth Crusing
A narrow silhouette and plump tires with all-wheel
suspension make for a much smoother push.

jogging strollers
Similar to a regular stroller but built with superior
suspension. Jogging strollers (or running strollers)
keep your baby comfortable while you walk, jog or run
on anything from trails to sidewalks.
Extra safe features
A few things can help keep you safe on the road: A stroller with
extra-reflective fabric so you can be seen in those dawn and dusk
hours, plus a wrist strap to keep stroller in control at all times.
Surprisingly Roomy
Includes an easy-access cargo space with pocket
for air pump and built-in mesh storage pockets.
Adjustable wheels
Good tracking on the front wheel helps keep the whole stroller running
straight. Look for an adjustable one that lets you have a full 360-swivel,
partial swivel or locked to adapt to your terrain.

FAQ
your stroller questions, answered
-
There are many different types of baby strollers. Finding the right one for you depends on how you plan to use it. If you travel a lot, you’ll want to consider a compact stroller that easily folds. For parents of multiple children, a double stroller can come in handy. For active parents, try a jogging stroller. If you’re looking for all the bells and whistles and max versatility, try a standard, full sized stroller.
-
You’ll want to wait until your baby can support their own head. Babies can start sitting upright in their stroller starting around 3 months old.
-
While your baby is still growing and developing, you may want to consider having them face you in the stroller. This is a good way to interact with your baby, keep an eye on their position, and keep them feeling safe while you’re out of the house.
-
Having stroller accessories can make your everyday outings feel more comfortable (and much more convenient!) Add a few practical features to your baby stroller like cup holders, a soft blanket or an organizer for your daily essentials.
-
Before you clean your stroller, make sure to check the manual for any important instructions regarding care. We recommend starting by picking up crumbs and debris with a vacuum. Using a mild detergent or cleaner, spot treat any stains with a clean microfiber cloth or sponge. Let your stroller dry and repeat the second step as necessary. Pro tip: If you have to take apart your stroller to clean it, take pictures of it so you know how to put everything back together.
-
For families with multiple children, we recommend a double stroller. This style often comes equipped with ample storage space and fits multiple kiddos at once. Double strollers can come in two different configurations: front-to-back (also known as a tandem stroller) or side-by-side.
