Why a 3 in 1 Pram is Perfect For New Parents

A 3 in 1 pram simplifies your day-to-day routine, whether you're out on errands or traveling or taking an afternoon stroll. Learn why this type of pushchair is ideal for new parents.

Pramettes fold more compactly and can be more easily carried to public transport, but they may not feel as comfy for long walks or when you need to go up steps.

Convenience

A 3 in 1 pram is a pram travel system that lets you switch between a pram, car seat and pushchair (and adapters). They're multi-purpose aids that make day to day life easier for you and your child.

Most 3 in 1 prams start life as a pram, or carrycot, and are suited to infants. They're designed to lie flat, which aids in healthy spine development and open airways for your baby. Some even have a view window so you can monitor your baby without disturbing them.

The next stage for your child is the pushchair, which they will be able to use as a toddler. Most of our twin pushchairs feature the lie-flat recliner for your child's safety and comfort, and a storage basket that is easily accessible to create additional space for toys or shopping. Some have cups for parents and a convenient zipped storage pocket to store your essentials.

Then you can complete the set with a car-seat that is attached to the chassis, or attach your existing Group 0+ seat using an adapter. A 3 in 1 compatible with a car seat allows you to move your baby from vehicle to pram without causing any disturbance. This is great for long-distance trips or when you're running errands.

The best 3 in 1 prams include a free rain cover that will keep your baby dry and comfortable even in wet weather. There are also options with adjustable handles which are useful when you're taller or smaller than average. Check that the pram you pick is light. This will affect how easy it is to lift and maneuver it into and out of your car's boot. Check if your pram comes with fixed wheels or swivel ones. Swivel wheels allow you to maneuver on pavements and kerbs.

Safety

A 3 in 1, or 3-in-1, pram is an excellent option for parents who are just starting out. You can use a single set of wheels from birth to carry your baby. This type of pushchair is made up of a carrycot/pram, pushchair and car seat in one unit. It allows you to change between the three stages depending on your baby's growth. This is perfect for families who frequently travel. It can be tucked away in the car's boot or at home.

It is crucial to choose a pram or stroller with the right safety features. Check that the stroller meets AS/NZS2088 safety standards and that it has a sturdy frame without any gaps or folds that could trap your child's head or legs, arms or even their heads. It should have a 5-point safety harness as well as a wrist tether to ensure extra security. Make sure you lock any folding mechanisms and never hang bags over the handles. Also, make sure you don't exceed the carriage weight limit. Make sure you always apply the brakes whenever you stop, even if it's only stopping for a few minutes, and don't let your children play in or out of the stroller or pram while it's moving. They could be swaying and cause the stroller to tip over.

It's recommended to make sure you balance the time your child is in the stroller or pram with plenty of tummy time and physical exercise. Remember, it's risky to leave your baby asleep in a stroller or pram, as they might wriggle and roll away.

Style

A 3-in-1 pram, or travel system bundle, is a fantastic option for families with busy schedules as it saves time on switching between different components of a pushchair. It usually consists of a carrycot/pram, a pushchair seat and car seat that can be rearranged to meet your child's needs from newborn to toddler stroller.

Look out for features like fixed or swivel wheels. These will help you manoeuvre the pram and make the tightest corners when you travel. Make sure the basket is spacious enough and how easy to fold it down for transport on trains or buses. Some prams feature single-handed folding mechanisms that allow easy and quick collapse when you get on or off public transport. Make sure the pram you select is in compliance with British safety standards. This is especially important if you are buying an item used.

Space Saving

It is essential to keep your baby gear organised and easily accessible, particularly in homes with limited space. This is the reason why 3 in 1 prams have become so well-liked since they're capable of folding down to an extremely compact size and fit easily in the boot of your car or an area for storage at home.

Modern prams can to transform into a stroller simply by removing the pushchair seat unit. This gives you an incredibly compact body that can be used right from birth. It can also be converted into an e-travel system by putting the car seat of your child onto the chassis (with universal adapters included).

Some prams feature an adjustable seat that can be completely flattened. This is great for newborns, as lying flat is beneficial for breathing and spinal development. One of our favourites is the Graco Near2Me, which comes with a button that allows you lift your child to your chest. This is perfect for keeping closeness and eye contact. This feature was a big success with our testers' parents, as it allowed them the freedom to push their child up without needing to secure anything.

It is also worth determining whether your chosen pram has fixed or swivel wheels as swivel wheels are easier to manoeuvre. If you intend to use public transport often, you should look for an easy-to-fold mechanism. This will make it easier and faster to fold your pram on and off of the bus or train.

It is also crucial to verify whether the height of the handle can be adjusted. This will allow you find the most comfortable position to push your child. This is particularly important if you have neck or back problems and the incorrect handle height can cause a lot of discomfort.

Another excellent feature to look for in a 3-in- 1 pram is an extendable canopy, which will keep your baby protected from the elements as they develop. This is a must for any new parents, because they will spend a lot of their time out and about in the beginning stages of their lives.
