Prams for babies
Staying outdoors is essential for babies from birth.
Sunlight strengthens bones, and fresh air ensures the healthy development of the entire body. For maximum convenience and comfort during walks, baby strollers for newborns are used.
Types of Strollers for Newborns
There are many different types of baby strollers for newborns, each suited to various parental needs and preferences. Here are several commonly used types:
- Bassinet strollers are specially designed for infants from birth up to 6 months. They feature a deep seat or bassinet with a mattress, providing comfort and safety for the baby. Bassinet strollers often come with an adjustable backrest, allowing the baby to lie down during sleep. These strollers are convenient for walks and offer optimal support for newborns.
- Convertible strollers are multifunctional strollers that can serve as a bassinet for newborns and as a regular stroller for older babies. They usually have interchangeable seats and backrests, allowing use throughout the child’s growth. These strollers are ideal for transitioning from lying to sitting positions as the child grows.
- 2-in-1 strollers are combined strollers that include features of both a bassinet for newborns and a stroller for older babies. They allow easy conversion from a lying position for a newborn to a sitting position for a growing child.
There is another type of stroller used for babies from 6 months and older — stroller buggies. These are mainly intended for children who can already sit on their own. However, the brand Anex has developed stroller models that can be used from birth — Anex Air-X, Anex Air-Z. These models have a backrest that easily reclines to a flat position suitable for newborns.
How to Choose a Stroller for a Newborn?
When choosing a stroller, consider the following aspects:
- Living environment: Elevators or stairs will affect your choice regarding the weight and size of the stroller.
- Height and physical capabilities: Choose a model with an adjustable handle for easier maneuvering.
- Seasonality: Make sure the stroller includes accessories like a mosquito net, rain cover, or hand muff to ensure comfort in any weather.
Depending on these parameters, you should choose the stroller's weight, dimensions, wheel type, adjustable handle height, and availability of protective accessories (mosquito net, rain cover, umbrella, hand muff, etc.). The design and color of the stroller can be chosen based on personal preference. Some parents prefer traditional gender-associated colors, such as pink or purple for girls and blue or green for boys. However, these are not strict rules, and you can choose any color you like, regardless of gender. Some colors are more practical, as they show less dirt and wear — for instance, darker shades like grey or navy blue hide stains better than lighter colors.
A stroller for a newborn should be not only stylish but also practical, ensuring maximum comfort for the baby and convenience for the parents.
