Taking Your Baby On Holiday For The First Time: Pushchairs

As first time parents, were all so worried about the safety and comfort of our babies

. This worry particularly comes about when baby goes on his or her first holiday, since there is so much to arrange. Not only do you have to take into consideration babys delicate skin, but how you are going to maneuver baby around whilst on holiday.

It is always recommended that you take a stroller or travel system with you. The advantage with a stroller when taking it on holiday is that it is easy to transport as it packs up snuggly and neatly, which is ideal for airplanes and cars. A travel system is probably going to be more useful to the more active family holiday, where a lot of walking or driving occurs. Furthermore, make sure your pushchair is as light as possible it will make it easier to carry and far cheaper to take onto a plane.

Take into account the amount of tread you may need for your babys pushchair. A thin delicate wheel is going to be of very little use on sand or rocky roads, but is perfect for smoother surfaces, such as a shopping centre. If you are expecting your holiday to be a little more adventurous, go for a larger wheel as this will be perfect for rougher ground.

If you are taking a stroller, make sure it has a way to shade baby and to protect him or her from the rain, so when she or he is asleep they dont burn or get wet. Attaching a parasol can keep some of the sun off babys delicate skin, but always remember to regularly rub special baby sun cream in and give baby a hat. Tandem rain covers placed over the pushchair will help keep baby warm and dry.

Remember before you holiday, prepare by asking the airline their rules on pushchairs. Some airline charge for pushchairs, whilst others may let you include a lightweight pushchair as part of your luggage. It just depends on the airlines policies. Also, create a label for the pushchair and include name, destination and contact details in case of loss.
