How To Choose The Best Pushchairs And Car Seats A pushchair can be a real lifesaver for parents who are busy. There are a variety of categories of pushchairs to choose from; prams, pushchairs, buggies and travel systems. Travel systems are a fantastic option for parents with newborns. They allow parents to move their baby from the car to the pushchair without disturbing him. For a smooth transition make sure you choose a model with adaptors for car seats that are compatible with the vehicle. Hood that can be removed This is the highest-rated stroller and car seat combo as per our experts who tested it. This lightweight and compact system is easy to carry and put away. Its clever shade and adjustable head support help babies feel safe while on the move. It is also suitable for infants who are rear-facing and weigh up to 35lbs. It comes with four recline positions. It also has a quiet canopy design to keep baby undisturbed in the vehicle. The seat is safe to use in any vehicle and comes with an indicator built-in for easy installation.

The car seat and the base are simple to put in and remove, and the latch base is illuminated when it is properly aligned. The stroller includes two cup holders, as well as a an ample basket for gear. The handlebar folds flat and is easy to maneuver and offers a variety of riding options for parents. The 7AM Enfant Coon (shop family owned by the family or shop on Amazon) will keep your child warm in the car seat, if they wear a puffy coat. This “shower-cap” style cover helps to stop the snow and wind from blowing over the face and hands of your child while in the car. The Cocoon is safe for car seats and can be worn under thin coats as long as there's not too much puff. The Cocoon is not recommended for taxi/Uber trips, however, as it blocks the path for belts to the car seat. Patagonia Hi Loft Down Hoody is an identical choice for children and infants (shop family owned/shop Amazon). The jacket is made of super-warm 600-fill power recycled down, and has an hood to provide extra warmth in colder weather. While it is suitable for use in the car seat when it is properly sized however, you'll need to compress the puff before tightening the harness straps. Another option is the KidCozy II, which is an insulated fleece blanket that has comfortable neck holes as well as holes to accommodate the hands. It is compatible with infant car seats, strollers, and baby carriers (facing in or out) and fits infants through four years old. Mould and mildew removal Mold is a fungus which develops on organic matter, mainly in dark and damp areas. Mold can produce an unpleasant musty odor and can be difficult to eliminate. If the mold isn't removed, it can continue to grow and spread. To stop this from happening it is essential to keep the area clean. First, eliminate all loose dirt and debris from the surface. This can be done by hand or using a vacuum cleaner fitted with an nozzle that is flexible. This is a great opportunity to clean pockets, compartments and other small areas that are difficult to reach. The next step is to wipe down the entire surface of the pushchair with a clean cloth or scrubber. It is crucial to perform this outside in a well-ventilated area and preferably wearing a mask to prevent breathing in mould or spores. After cleaning the fabric you can spray it with a mildew-removal or a diluted solution of white vinegar. Vinegar, a natural disinfectant that will not harm the fabric or other components in your pushchair, is an excellent alternative. If you are not able to eliminate the mould from the fabric's surface, it may be necessary to dry and scrub the area with the aid of a dehumidifier. It is recommended that you let the fabric dry completely prior to storing. Place the fabric in a bright location and spray it with anti-fungal spray. Milton makes a child-friendly version. If you're having difficulty getting rid of stains that are difficult to remove or mould, try using MARBLELIFE® Mold and Mildew Stain Remover. This product has been proven to be six times more effective than store-bought brands that have sat on shelves for months prior to you buying them. Just-in-time production guarantees maximum effectiveness of this product at the time it is applied. Cleaning A car seat or a pushchair can be quite dirty item to keep clean, especially when it's used for outdoor adventures and has been dragged along mud, food crumbs and other debris. The best way to start is to remove dirt that has accumulated with crevice attachments, or employ a brush to clean out any crevices and nooks. Spray on Clorox Free and Clean Multi-Surface spray cleaners or a similar product, then apply a soft cloth work the product into any fabric pieces like the seat, basket or the hood. Review the care instructions for any stains and marks to determine if it is possible to machine wash them. If you want to tackle any marks or stains it's a good idea to check the care instructions to see if they can be machine washed. Some pushchairs have fabric sections, such as seat supports and hoods that can be removed completely, allowing you to pop them in the washing machine or wash them with a hand wash. Once these are cleaned, lay them flat to dry, so that they retain their shape. Make sure that they're dry before placing them back onto your child's play equipment. The chassis or frame of your pushchair may need a little more attention than the parts made of fabric. If you see mold spores on the plastic, it is important to immediately take action to stop the spores from spreading around to your child while they sleep. A solution of water and vinegar is ideal for this as it can break down the bacteria, and can be washed away. For more difficult to reach or difficult areas, an old toothbrush can help get into tight corners and gaps. If you have stains that will not move, try adding a bit of bicarbonate of soda into the wash or a baking soda solution to scrub it off. This will not only neutralize any odours but also lift any stains a first wash might miss. Storage A quality pushchair will come with plenty of exterior and internal storage space for all the necessities like snacks, drinks and toys. The main compartment of the pushchair should be large enough to accommodate a laptop or tablet. There should also be a smaller side compartment to store small items like phones, keys or other baby items. Some pushchairs have hidden storage under the seat which is great to keep these items out of the way when baby is asleep. A travel system bundle could be a great choice for new parents, as it allows them to purchase a car seat along with a stroller in one purchase. The most effective travel systems have adaptors that are compatible, allowing the car seat to be fixed onto the chassis of the stroller-this allows you to easily transfer a sleeping baby from the vehicle to the pushchair without causing any disturbance to them. In our tests, the best combinations had a simple connection that felt as if it was made by itself. This is a major advantage when compared to combinations that require a second phase of strap attachment, which could lead to mistakes. In reality, those combinations with straps scored lower on our ease of use ratings. Some pushchairs are also equipped with a footmuff, which is ideal for winter. However, it is important to ensure that the footmuff is compatible with a car seat. Also, ensure it has a hood that will shield your child from the elements. There are a variety of accessories for pushchairs, such as rain covers and a footmuff. Certain are essential, while others may be optional, according to your requirements. A rain cover is an essential accessory to protect infant from the elements when you are out and about, whereas the footmuff can help keep babies warm during the colder months. New parents also love baskets, changing bags and cup holders. A well-designed pushchair can simplify the life of you and your baby. Take the time to explore all the options.
