iCandy - Prams and Pushchairs

Prams are among the most frequently used baby products. They are durable, and maintenance is easy. They also have a high chance for circularity, provided that policies are in place to ensure that secondhand prams are refurbished and redistributed to new parents.

Prams are made for babies and newborns up to six months They usually come with a carrycot or bassinet and are able to lie flat. Some prams are able to be converted into a car-seat and can also accommodate carseats, which is why they are called travel systems.

Parasol

A parasol is an umbrella that is attached to the frame of your pushchair to shade your baby and help in preventing heat stroke. They are usually made from SPF/UPF 50+ materials and also provide protection against light rain. If your stroller does not come with one, you can buy one. It is also possible to use snooze shades, which attach to single prams and stroller carrycots and block the overhead sun.

You can also include a footmuff. It's a soft blanket with a waterproof cover that protects your baby's legs from cold. Many brands sell footmuffs on their own or as part of their triple pram bundles. It is recommended to purchase a footmuff that has an easy release clamp that is easy to attach and release.

If you are planning to take your stroller on rough terrain, then look for an all-wheel model. They are better at manoeuvring on uneven terrain, and have larger tyres that can withstand rocks and sharper objects. They weigh a bit more than pushchairs with three wheels. However, they are still relatively light and easy to maneuver.

Regular maintenance is essential for your pushchair to ensure it operates smoothly and keeps your child safe. You can clean it with the help of a cloth, warm soapy baby wipes or water. You should also consider investing in a silicone lubricant to grease the wheel bearings and joints of your pushchair. Tighten any loose screws. Also, you should consider the option of a pushchair service which is where a professional inspects your pushchair and give it a thorough cleaning to ensure that everything is operating as it should be.

While many parents view a footmuff to be essential, it's important to ensure that your baby is prepared for it before you buy it. The newborn needs a firm mattress to support their back and feet, and a footmuff could be uncomfortable for them if it's too soft. A lot of footmuffs are designed to last from the time of birth to toddlerhood and some even have a double zip arrangement at the bottom to ensure that you can make the most use of it. This means they will last for a long period of time and are an excellent investment for parents.

Parent facing

Parents appreciate the ability to keep eye contact with their child while they are in prams that are oriented towards parents. This visual connection helps build trust and security as well as soothe toddlers and infants who are agitated. This allows parents to respond to their child's needs quickly, whether it is the need for reassurance or snacks.

A lot of parents use a stroller for their newborns but as they get older, they might change to a pushchair. The primary difference between the two is that a pushchair typically comes with a carry cot for newborns to sleep in and a frame to fix it to. A pram can be reclined and turned forward or facing the parent and the pushchair is typically upright and doesn't have an option for carrying cots.

The selection of pushchairs and prams at Very was curated with your baby's comfort in mind. Our selection of models include adjustable seats that allow you to recline your little one to take a nap, and then raise them up to watch the world pass by. Some of our favorite models also have sun canopy that shield your child from the elements.

When choosing a stroller, ensure that it is user-friendly and that the brakes are working. The chassis should also have two locking devices to prevent it from folding while in use. In addition, a suitable safety harness is essential to protecting your child's seat and preventing them from falling out of the pushchair. A pram blanket could be helpful to keep your baby warm and protect them from the elements. They are available in a variety of colors and designs to suit your baby's pushchair.

Ergonomic support

The ergonomic support of prams is an important feature that helps to reduce tension and back pain. It ensures that parents are at ease and are able to focus on their child without having to worry about sore muscles. This feature makes it easier for parents to maneuver the stroller in tight spaces or over kerbs. It is particularly helpful for taller parents who might have difficulty reaching the handles of smaller pushchairs.

The support is integrated into the handlebars, and can be adjusted to the height of the parent. This makes it easy to use for various body types and to locate a position that is most comfortable for them. The ergonomic support helps parents to maintain a natural posture and avoid injuries like carpal tunnel syndrome and shoulder pain.

A pram or pushchair can be lifesaver for new parents since it allows them the freedom to explore the world with their child. It is important to balance the time spent in the pram or stroller with plenty of time with the baby and physical activity for the child. Many children are injured by prams and strollers every year and some even require hospitalization for accidents resulting caused by these devices. Accidents can happen when strollers tip over or when bags are tied to the handles.

Some prams can be converted into twin pushchairs, which makes them an excellent option for families with babies. These pushchairs come from various top brands, and include features like reclining seats and rain covers. A ride-on board can be beneficial for older toddlers who are tired of walking.

Ride-on board

New parents need pushchairs as well as prams. These handy strollers make moving around a breeze, whether you're heading to a toddler and baby group or going for an enjoyable stroll in the park. These strollers are great for everyday outings and allow you to spend time with your child.

The age and needs of your child will determine the most suitable pram or pushchair. For babies and infants that are not yet able to walk, a pushchair with an infant carrycot is best. They can lie flat on their backs, which is beneficial for their spinal and lungs development. You can also purchase a ride-onboard, which allows older children to join in the fun.

If you're looking for a stroller that will grow with your child look into a convertible pushchair. These offer multiple configurations and are great for twins or siblings of various age groups. Some models have a tandem configuration making them easier to maneuver and observe.

Strollers and prams need regular cleaning to prevent mildew and mould, as well as dust build-up. Most components can be cleaned by vacuuming them or wiping them with warm soapy-water and a soft towel. If you're concerned about the fabric, a cleaning spray can be beneficial.

If you're using a pushchair over rough terrain, be sure to check the tyres for puncture resistance. The best tyres are composed of a mix of EVA outer and PU inner, which resemble the air-tyre feel but are more durable. You can also add hand muffs and mudguards in order to keep your child safe and dry. You can also use a stroller organiser to store your baby's essentials. It's also worth examining the fold of the stroller to ensure it fits into your car's boot and takes up minimal storage space at home.
