Whether your children are twins or siblings of different ages, a double buggy is the best way to move them around. There are two kinds of double buggies: tandem buggies, where one child is seated over the other, and side-by-side buggies. Both buggies can be fitted with two fixed seats. However, side-by-side buggies are narrower to fit through doors. Tandems are generally more spacious overall. They can also accommodate both seats for toddlers and a carrycot.

Do you have a baby?

Having a younger sibling can feel like quite an overwhelming responsibility at first, especially when you need to be attentive to the baby. They may be a bit irritated when they are in a baby carrier as you push the older sibling ahead, so having a double buggy from the start will make life easier.

There are three kinds of double buggies: tandem side-by-side and convertible. Side-by-side buggies come with two seats positioned next to each other, which means your children can see each other.

Tandem buggies are an easier way to travel with a seat in the front and another in the rear, but they can still be long and heavy to push.

Convertible double buggies are fantastic because they allow you to convert your single stroller into an additional buggy by attaching an infant bassinet or car seat to the frame. This allows you to keep your newborn snuggled up safely in their car seat until they're ready to move into the main buggy seat. The UPPAbaby Vista V2 is a fantastic illustration of this. It's suitable for twins, a baby and toddler or even three children with the the optional PiggyBack board.
