An urban-style pushchair will likely suit you best. Usually with smaller (read nippier) wheels and a lighter, sometimes slimmer frame, this type of pushchair is ideal if you’re navigating city streets or nipping in and out of shops. Often lighter and more portable than all-terrain options, but their smaller wheels might not be suitable for bumpy country walks. Not all urban pushchairs are suitable from birth, so check before you buy if you’re buying for a newborn.
How often will your little one be taking naps in their pushchair?
a) Every now and then if we’re out at naptime
b) Occasionally, mostly when we’re out and about
c) It’ll probably happen quite a lot as we don’t want our days out restricted by nap times
