What is a travel systems?

A travel system is a stroller that can accommodate a car seat for your baby and some even include the option of a carrycot. Parents with newborns will appreciate this option as they can easily transfer their baby in a sleep position from their car into the pushchair.

A good travel system can be glued to the frame of your pushchair and fit comfortably into your car. This allows for an easy journey for your child. It's a great option because you'll need only one purchase to celebrate the arrival of your baby. You'll also save money.

Many will come with a matching changing bag that is a perfect match and car seat accessories, and should you want to make things easier, there are travel system bundles that contain everything you require in one purchase. This is the most efficient method to ensure that the components are in sync. There's no need to search for a car seat that works and then figuring out that you'll need adapters!

What are the seat recline options?

If you opt for a travel system that comes with a carrycot, then make sure the pushchair seat is fully reclined to ensure your baby can nap comfortably and is in a lying flat position for spinal and respiratory development. Take into consideration whether the handlebar could be adjusted in height to make it comfortable for you, your spouse or anyone else who might use frequently.

The majority of pushchairs that are 'from birth' come with a reversible seat so that you can choose whether your child sits parent-facing (to increase their communication skills) or facing the world to stimulate their curiosity and allow them to see where they are going. Some travel systems also have an reversible car seat that clips directly onto the frame of the pushchair without having to remove it, ensuring that you can easily transfer your child from the car to the stroller and back.

Make sure the car seat you select is compatible with your pushchair, since not all infant car seats can be used with all pushchairs without the need for adaptors. Some travel systems come with all the adaptors you need in the box, however others might require them to be bought separately. Check the product details or contact your local retailer.

How do you get it done?

If you're looking for a transport system to transport your baby from car to pushchair, and back ensure that the chassis of your pushchair isn't too heavy, and that you have enough room in your boot to accommodate a carrycot. Carrycots are light and easy to attach but they're best used with babies up to 6 months old. They should always be used in conjunction with a lying pushchair to allow the baby to be fully reclined position. This is ideal for their lung and spinal development.

If you opt for a travel system bundle or choose and mix the components yourself it's important to keep in mind that they're all designed to work together as a unit by the brands. This means that you can be certain that they'll all fit and work well. Buying all your items in one location can be a great idea and is generally cheaper than purchasing them separately. And being able to move your sleeping baby from the car seat to a stroller for a nursery run or nipping into shops without disrupting them is a huge benefit. Travel systems are worth the cost.

How do I attach a carrycot or car seat?

The majority of pushchairs 'from birth' can be linked to an appropriate baby car seat or carrycot to allow easy transitions from your vehicle to the street. This is great for babies as it allows them to rest in a flat position.

When the baby is outgrowing their infant car seat (usually until the age of 18 months) most travel systems can be used with a stroller seat which means that they'll last longer as your child grows. A lot of travel systems come with an additional stroller seat, however some, like the Doona and the Evenflo Shyft DualRide, have one piece design, which means that the car seat can be folded into the pushchair and then unfolds again to go into the base of your vehicle.

If you decide to put a carrycot or car seat on your pushchair, be sure you read the instructions and adhere to the age, weight, and size limitations. Check if the car seat and pushchair have been recalled for safety reasons.

A lot of pushchairs come with accessories to enhance your experience. For example the use of a footmuff is a way to protect your baby against the elements, while a parasol made of SPF/UPF50+ fabric will keep them sheltered from the sun. Some models also come with a ride-on board that is ideal for toddlers who are ready to take on the world by themselves, but need some help.

What is the weight restriction?

A pushchair travel system can usually accommodate babies up to the maximum weight and age. It will differ based on the car seat and pushchair pram combo you select as well as your own needs, so it's important to review these specifications thoroughly. Similar applies to the brakes of the model you choose It's crucial to ensure that they are sturdy and simple to operate.

Many brands include infant seat adaptors as part of their travel system packages. This lets you attach the car seat of your child onto the frame of the stroller. This allows you to get out with your baby much easier. This means that your baby will be able to utilize their stroller even after they have outgrown the car seat and carrycot. This is a great choice for families who are busy and have plenty of things to do each day.

How do you fold?

There are a variety of fold types available for pushchairs. Some are actually one-handed with just a click of one button. Others need two hands or a few steps but still manage to fold down to a small size. Some models even stay standing when folded, which makes it simple to carry around. This design is perfect if you commute or reside in a city and want to make the transition between car and pushchair seamless. Also, if you have a tiny boot.

Some travel system pushchairs, depending on the model can be used from birth by adding a car seat or carrycot. These are typically accepted to be used in the cabin of flights and are great for parents that like to travel extensively as a family.

The most cost-effective choice is to buy a car seat with an pushchair. The bundle is typically created by the manufacturer and consists of a pushchair and car seat that are designed to work together. Some pushchairs specify which car seats they are compatible with, and you can then purchase a seat separately (though this might require adaptors for car seats). The Babyzen YOYO is Gemma's pick for the top lightweight travel system due to its unique features and quick folding.

What is it like?

A travel system bundle offers convenience, security and cost savings. These bundles are put together by brands or retailers. All the parts are carefully selected for compatibility. This means that you don't need to do a lot of research on which car seat is compatible with your ideal running pushchair or searching online for a sock or changing bag that complements the style.

Some of them can be converted into a tandem twin if you are expecting more than one child.

A travel system can be really convenient if you're going to be walking and driving with your child since it lets you move them from car to pushchair, and then back without disturbing them or having to find a safe spot to park. They can also save you space in the boot of your car, making it easier to pop into the shops or do the school run.
