Car Seat
A 2 in 1, travel system pram includes a car seat which can be clicked into the stroller. It can also be transformed into a carrycot. This makes it a one stop shop for your baby's initial years. They can be more expensive than standard strollers, however, the convenience and security of moving your newborn from the car to the stroller with no disturbance is well worth the additional cost.

Many 2 in 1 travel systems prams come with baby car seats and stroller that can be used from birth, however the majority of car seats aren't compatible with all strollers, which is why it's crucial to do your research before you buy. It's crucial to select one that is compatible with your car model and can be set up in a safe manner. Check the manufacturer's guidelines and the Consumer Products Safety Commission website for recalls. You can also check with your insurance provider for roadside assistance if you need assistance in installing something or dealing with other issues.
Carrycot
A carrycot is a convenient to transport small crib that can be connected to a pram frame. It lets babies sleep in comfort while on the go. It is a great option to use from birth until your baby can sit up without assistance, which is usually around six months. A carrycot can also be an ideal alternative to the moses basket or crib and can double up as a travel cot when away from home. The carrycot in a 2 in 1 travel system pram is usually flat and large. It supports your baby's natural sleep position and promotes healthy growth. Some of our carrycots, including the doofy 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 prams include the pushchair, car seat and carrycot so you can pick the most suitable method of transport for every journey. They tend to be heavier than their 2 in 1 counterparts and can be preferred by parents who appreciate the classic look of a pram. Many of these models also have the facility to remove the pushchair seat unit which allows you to make it a lighter stroller after your baby is old enough to sit and face you.

Be sure to look for accessories for your carrycot like footmuffs and weather shields. You can also find tray for both children and parents.
Stroller
If your baby is able to sit comfortably in a car-seat for infants and is ready to walk on their own, a stroller might be the best 2 in 1 stroller option. Strollers can be folded easily, are compact and often can be tucked away in the trunk of your car. They're spacious enough to hold all of your baby's essentials and provide a comfortable ride, even on rough terrain. Some strollers feature a large bassinet for naps on the move. The best strollers have modern safety features like 5-point harnesses making them the ideal option for any new parent.
Modern prams and strollers come with adaptors which allow you to attach a car capsule to the chassis. This allows you to transfer your baby to sleep without disturbing them.
