Why a 3 in 1 Pram is Perfect For New Parents
A 3 in 1 pram simplifies your daily routine regardless of whether you're out running errands or traveling or simply taking the dog for a walk. Find out why this type of pushchair is ideal for the new parents.
The foldable prams are more convenient to transport on public transportation, but they may not be as comfortable for long walks or when you need to climb stairs.
Convenience
A 3 in one pram is a travel system that lets you change between a pram car seat, and pushchair (and adapters). They're multi-purpose helpers that simplify day-to-day life easier for you and your child.
Most 3 in 1, or 3 in 1 prams, start out as a pram or carrycot and are designed for newborns. They are designed to be laid flat, which aids in healthy spine development and opens up airways for your child. Some have a viewing window to allow you to check on your little one without disrupting them.
The next step for your child is the pushchair, which they can sit in when they become a toddler. Many of our pushchairs have a lie-flat reclining seat for your child's safety and comfort, as well as a storage basket that can be easily accessed to provide additional space for toys or shopping. Some have a cup holder for the parent and a convenient storage compartment for your essentials.
Then you can finish 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 pram that's compatible with car seats will allow you to move your child from the vehicle to the pram without disturbing them and is ideal for long drives or when you're out running errands.
Our top 3 in 1 prams come with a complimentary rain cover that will keep your child dry and comfortable even in wet weather. There are also models with handles that can be adjusted which are useful for those who are taller or smaller than average. Also, make sure that your chosen pram isn't heavy because this will affect the ease with which you can maneuver and lift in and out of the boot of your car. Take note of whether your stroller has fixed wheels or swivel ones. Swivel wheels allow you to move on kerbs and pavements.
Safety
A 3 in 1, or 3-in-1 pram is a great option for new parents. You can use a single set of wheels from the time of birth to transport your child. This type of pushchair combines an infant carrycot, a pram, pushchair seat and car seat into one and typically allows you to switch between these three types of seats as your baby grows. This saves space at home as well as in the boot of your car, so it's ideal for families who have to travel frequently.
The choice of a stroller or pram with the right safety features is important. Check that the stroller meets AS/NZS2088 safety standards, and ensure that it has a sturdy frame without any gaps or folds which could trap your child’s head or legs, arms here or even their heads. It should also have five-point harnesses and a wrist tether straps for extra safety. Make sure you lock any folding mechanism and never hang bags on the handles. Also, do not exceed the carriage weight limit. Be sure to apply the brakes whenever you stop, even if you're only stopping for a few minutes and don't let your children play in or out of the stroller or pram when it's moving. They may wriggle and cause the stroller to tip over.
It's an ideal idea to ensure your child gets plenty of time for tummy-time and physical activity. Be aware that it's a risk to leave sleeping babies unattended in a pram or stroller in case they wiggle and roll off.
Style
A 3 in 1, or travel system bundle is a fantastic option for busy families as it helps them save time switching between pushchair components. It typically consists of a pram/ carrycot, pushchair seat and car seat that can be swapped seamlessly to meet your child's needs as they grow from toddler to newborn.
Look for features such as fixed or swivel-wheels to aid you in maneuvering the pram on your travels and make tight turns. Check the size of the basket and how easy it is to fold so it can be transported on buses or trains. Some prams come with single-handed folding mechanisms that allow for quick and simple collapse while boarding or exiting public transport. Make sure that the pram you choose complies with the latest British safety standards, especially if buying second hand.

It features advanced safety features as well as a plush seat with adjustable positions for your little one's optimal comfort and a stylish modern design that matches your lifestyle. It includes a shopping bag as well as a cup holder for the parent and other accessories for the ultimate stroller that is all-in-one.
Space Saving
With the limited space available in modern homes, it is essential that the baby gear you do have is organized and easy to put away. The 3-in-1 prams have gained a lot of popularity due to their ability to fold down to a size that fits easily into the car's boot or in a storage space at home.
Modern prams can be converted to strollers by taking out the pushchair unit. This gives you an extremely compact, lightweight pram that is able to be used from birth. It can also be converted into a travel system once you add the car seats of your child onto the chassis.
Some prams have seats that recline, which can be completely flattened. This is ideal for newborns, as lying flat can promote healthy breathing and spine development. One of our favourites is the Graco Near2Me. It has a nifty button that allows you to lift your child up to your chest. This is great for maintaining closeness and eye contact. This feature was a huge success with our testers' parents because it gave them the freedom to push their child without needing to secure anything.
It is also worth checking whether the model you choose has fixed or swivel wheels since the swivel wheels are more easy to manoeuvre. If you are planning on using public transport frequently and want a one hand folding mechanism since this will make it much quicker and easier to fold your pram for transport on the train or bus.
It is also crucial to check if the handle height can be adjusted. This will help you find the most comfortable position to push your child. This is particularly important for those who have neck or back problems, as the wrong handle can cause discomfort.
A 3 in 1 stroll with an extendable canopy will shield your child from the elements. This is essential for parents who are new, as they'll spend a lot of their time out and about in the early years of their lives.
