Buying a Pram With Car Seat

There are many things to think about when buying a new pram. All prams have pros and cons.

Parent Facing

Even as babies grow older and move into the toddler stage, many parents prefer to keep their children parent facing and opt for strollers that have convertible car seats so that they can still be able to see their parents' faces when out and out and about. This can provide a sense comfort for both parents and their child and is an excellent way to foster bonding, while also supporting your child's cognitive development.

This is because it requires them to move their body in a manner that they may not be used to, which can lead to discomfort and irritability.
