Travel systems that have been evaluated by editors allow you to move your baby who is sleeping in the car to a stroller, without disrupting them. Some travel systems include an infant carrycot to help encourage natural sleep.

Car Seat

A 2-in-1 travel set comes with a stroller 2 in 1 and an infant car seat that snap together. It's a great option for caregivers and parents who frequently run errands with baby or take their little one out on rideshares or public transportation. "You'll have less gear to manage," explains Graco spokeswoman Rachel Stanton. "And it's ideal for families that alternate between carpooling with other moms and taking public transportation."

Doona infant car seats and latch bases are a popular choice, with 90 percent of Amazon reviews rating it five stars. It's a rear-facing car seat that can be converted into a rolling jogging stroller in seconds. The wheels fold under and it's small when not in use. The Doona also attaches to a car's backseat using the LATCH base that is rigid or to taxi-safe belt routes, making it ideal for city families and commuters.

The Mamas & Papas Pramette is yet another great car seat/stroller combination, featuring a pram 2 in 1 uk with the hood as well as a front seats that open to let you lay your child down for naps or feedings. It comes with a large basket, cup holders and a basket for all of your baby's necessities and a tray for parents and sun shade. The stroller seat is able to recline in multiple positions and can be flat too, so your baby will be comfortable on every ride.

The weight and height limits are important. Also, consider whether the infant car seat is only compatible with a belt for the back seat or if it has a rigid LATCH system built in. Also look for a lock on the handle to ensure it stays secure in place and the ability to tilt the handle toward the back seatback to create an anti-rebound bar.

It's important to note that travel systems work only with infant car seats. Extended-use car seats that later be turned forward-facing snap into strollers. For this reason, many moms choose to purchase an additional stroller and car seat when their child grows out of the infant seat.

Stroller

A stroller is a vital piece of equipment for any new parent. Some travel systems come with a baby stroller that can be transformed into a comfy infant carrycot. This is perfect for parents who do not want to disturb their newborn while traveling. Based on the brand they may also include the option of a stroller and car seat combo that clicks into each other. This allows you to keep your child in the car seat while transferring them to a stroller without disturbing them.

A great stroller should be equipped with a variety of features that make it functional and easy to use. It should have a large storage basket that can hold important items like nappies, toys, and snacks. It can also recline so that your baby can sleep comfortably. It should also include a good canopy to protect your baby from sun's rays and a lockable for the front wheel for extra security. It should also be light and compact for storage as well as transportation to and from the vehicle.

Travel system strollers that have been evaluated by editors, for instance the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo and Chicco Keyfit Caddy, offer convenience as they can be connected to a range of top car seats. These car seats snap onto the frame to be connected and fold up easily. Some come with a single wheel on each leg, making them easier to manoeuvre and roll over different surfaces.

A stroller should be able to function through toddlerhood and beyond if you require it to carry your child to and from school or to play dates, activities and so on. For this reason, look for a model with a seat that faces the world (and reclines) after your child has outgrown the car seat.

If you intend to utilize your 2-in-1 travel system in public transport, select a model that has an ISOFIX base. This will ensure that it is safe to get on and off trains or buses. Some models, like the Doona can be fitted on trains and planes to make traveling with your baby a lot easier.
