There are many factors to consider when selecting the ideal double buggy right from birth. We spoke with Fourth Trimester postnatal retreat expert Katie Billingsley for her advice on everything from seating options to age ranges to folding mechanisms and storage space.

A must-have purchase for active families This buggy will grow with your family from twins through to toddlers. It is lightweight with great maneuverability and is able to handle uneven terrain with ease.

What kind of buggy would you like?

Double buggys are great for transporting up to two children at a time, even if they are not of the same age. They can also serve as prams. Each seat has an adjustable mechanism so that your children can sit or lie down in different positions. Many of them also have plenty of storage space for everything from snacks and drinks to wipes and nappies. Often they're lightweight, fold up easily and are small enough to fit into the car boot. If you're someone who drives a lot, it's worth checking that the buggy's maneuverability using the folded wheels, and to take out and into your boot.

You may have seen this kind of double buggy on other mums strollers, or even in one as a kid. They're ideal for twins or older siblings who want to keep pace with you. They also come in various seating configurations and styles, including 'cinema chairs'. They are usually simple to navigate, and if you opt for a model with a soft suspension, they can effortlessly handle the kerbs.

Tandem buggies, which are simpler to turn than side-by sides, are also popular. This is due to the fact that the second seat sits behind the first instead of sitting on top of it. The seats are usually bigger and bulkier than a side-by-side however, so make sure whether they can fit through doors or on public transport. They can be used to transport twins, a toddler, a baby or three children, with the addition of a buggy board.

Lastly there are the'single-to-double' convertibles which can be used as a single pushchair from birth then convert to a double by attaching a second seat, carrycot or car seat to their clever frame. They are generally more expensive than side-by-sides and tandem buggies but provide plenty of flexibility and a high price for resales. They're generally simple to steer, feature an enormous storage basket and are able to handle uneven surfaces. Some models even come with an integrated ride-on board that can be used as cinema seating for your older child.

Do you have twins?

Whether your children are twins or siblings of different age groups, a double buggie is the best way to transport them around. There are two types of double buggy - side-by-side buggies in which your children are seated in a row, side-by-side and tandem buggies in which one baby is above the other. Both can be fitted with two fixed seats, but side-byside buggies tend to be smaller in size to fit through doors. Tandems tend to be wider in general. They can also accommodate both a toddler seat and a carrycot.

Do you have children?

At beginning the idea of having a younger sibling could feel like a lot of responsibility especially if you are also taking care of the baby. A double buggy may help them to feel included if you put them in an infant carrier and push the older child. It can aid your child in settling into their new role of a 'big brother or sister'.

Double buggies that are side-by-side are often considered to be the best choice for twins since they allow both children to have the same view, however they can be bulky and heavy. We like the sleek B-AGILE DOUBLE by Leclerc which has an innovative frame that expands in width to accommodate two fixed seats and offers various configuration options, including using the second seat as baby carrier or a bassinet.

We recommend the Mountain Buggy Double Trailblazer to families who are active and love to explore. This innovative buggy is a single-pushchair which can be made double by adding an additional seat or carrycot (depending on model). Its smooth ride is perfect for rough terrain, and it has lots of clever features that will keep everyone comfortable.

Do you require a travel system?

Double buggies are a great way to transport your children in comfort. However, they are not necessary for every family. You could make do with one stroller and some attachments such as baby straps and toddler carriers that permit your child and you to be able to travel on their backs, or in the front.

There are three types of double buggies: tandem, side-by-side, and convertible. The two seats are set parallel to each other, so your children can be able to see each other. They are wider than a single compact twin stroller and may be difficult to maneuver over kerbs. Tandem buggies offer an easier way to travel with a single seat in the front and a second in the rear, but they are still large and heavy to push.

Convertible double buggies are great as they allow you to transform your single stroller into an additional buggy by attaching an infant car seat or bassinet to the frame. This allows you to keep your newborn snuggled up safely in their car seat until they're ready for a move into the main buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is an excellent example of this - it's suitable for twins or a toddler or even three children with the addition of the optional PiggyBack board.

If your children have grown older and have more endurance, a double tandem pushchair-buggy can also be used to accompany them on bike rides or day trips where they'd prefer to walk. It's important to keep in mind that they may not desire to be in a buggy, and they could easily get tired and angry during longer trips.

So, before you decide to purchase a double stroller from the beginning, take some time to take a look at the above factors and the particular circumstances of your family. Having a solid and reliable double stroller with infant car seat stroller can simplify life especially if you need to travel through busy streets or crowded shopping centres.
