Why You Should Be Working With This 2 In 1 Travel System
Editor-Tested 2 in 1 Travel System Pram
The most effective 2 in 1, travel system prams allow you to easily transition your baby between the stroller and a car. These sets are editor-tested and approved. They include an infant seat that snaps onto the stroller frame to ensure an easy ride.
Be aware that these car seats only work with rear-facing infant car seats (not extended-use car seats, that are designed to be used in the car). Age and weight limits vary by product.
Car Seat
A 2 in 1 travel system pram comes with car seats that can be plugged into the stroller and can also transform into a carrycot, making it a one-stop shop for your baby's first years. These prams cost more than standard strollers, but the ease of transferring your child from the car to the stroller with ease and without causing any disturbance to them is worth the extra price.
A modern interpretation of a traditional pram, the UPPAbaby car seat and pram combo is a favourite among parents. The Vista stroller is smooth and easy to maneuver and the Mesa infant car seat is clipped easily into your vehicle via UPPAbaby's Smart Secure LATCH system, which makes it simpler than other models to set up. Plus, the pram can be used as a bassinet, or in carriage mode and you can alter the seat's orientation to forward-facing or rear-facing based on your preference.
The Graco LiteMax combo infant car seat and stroller is another highly rated product for parents who are new. Similar to the Doona it can also be converted into a rolling bassinet, or stroller with the option of reclining seats that be positioned to face your child towards the front or back of the stroller based on their preference.

However, many of these car seats are not compatible with all strollers. The most important thing is to purchase a high-quality product that works with your specific car model and is safe to be installed. Visit the Consumer Products Safety Commission's website as well as the manufacturer's guidelines for recalls. You can also call your insurance company to inquire whether they provide roadside assistance should you need help with an installation or other problem.
Carrycot
A carrycot is a compact portable cot that is attached to the frame of a pram and allows babies to sleep comfortably when out and about. It's ideal from birth until your baby is able to sit up unaided, typically around 6 months. A carrycot can also be an ideal alternative to a moses basket or crib and can be used as a travel cot for those away from home. The carrycot on a 2 in 1 pram for travel typically has a large flat base, and is designed to accommodate your baby's natural sleeping position which aids healthy growth and development. Some of our carrycots, such as the didofy Stargazer, are also suitable for overnight sleeping and can be easily rolled up and stored when not in use.
The majority of 3 in 1 combination prams are able to combine a pushchair and a car seat or carrycot, so you can select the best mode of transport for your journey. They tend to be bulkier than their 2 in 1 counterparts and can be preferred by parents who prefer the traditional look of prams. These models often come with the option of removing the pushchair so that you can use them as lightweight strollers when your child is old enough to sit straight and face you.
2 in 1 bassinet stroller in 1 travel system prams that feature a carrycot usually come with a light chassis that folds flat, which makes them smaller and easier to fit into smaller vehicles.

For instance, make sure that the carrycot meets the new standard EN 1466:2023 (which replaces the old EN 0+:2014+AC:2015, and will become mandatory by June 2024). Also, look for carrycot accessories such as footmuffs, weather shields and parent and child trays to help your little one feel safe and comfortable while they sleep in their cot.
Stroller
A stroller is a great option for babies who are capable of sitting in a car seat that is for infants and is now ready to start walking independently. Strollers are easy to fold and are small enough to fit in the boot of your car. They are spacious enough to accommodate all of the necessities for your baby and provide an enjoyable ride, even on rough terrain. Some models come with a large bassinet, which allows napping while on the go. The best strollers are equipped with the most recent safety features, such as 5-point harnesses. They are a great option for new parents.
Many modern strollers and prams come with adaptors that make it possible to click an automobile capsule into the chassis and allow you to transfer your sleeping baby from the car to the pushchair without disturbing them. This is a great feature for busy parents who are always on the move, as it lets you complete essential errands without having to wake your child or risk removing them from the vehicle. This is best demonstrated by the Doona travel system, a stroller that is lightweight that can be transformed into a carrycot or a group baby seat.
