Safety

The pram should be fitted with five-point safety harnesses that will ensure your baby's safety. It must also be free of gaps between their head and legs that can get trapped. The straps must be cushioned, and easily adjustable as your child grows. Examine the buckles on your harness to make sure they're not cracked and show signs of wear. Every year, a large number of children are admitted to hospitals because of injuries caused by prams and strollers. The main cause of these injuries is the result of a stroller tipping over. Even the most robust prams could fall over if you hang bags onto the handles, or if a wriggling child gets into or out of the seat without harnesses being properly secured.

Another frequent cause of injuries is falling from the pram or stroller. If the harness of a baby is not secured properly it could cause them to fall out of the stroller, causing head or neck injuries. This is why it is vital to ensure that the harness buckle is always locked in place.

Some prams pushchairs have a reversible shade that can be used to protect your baby in either direction from the sun. This feature is helpful because you don't have to wake your baby every time you alter their position in the stroller, or when you enter and out of shops. There are also other features that could be useful, like a snack tray for your toddler or child and drink holders. There is also a basket for shopping underneath the seat.

Never leave a sleeping baby in a pram without being within reach. Babies can be prone to wriggling while sleeping and could cause them to fall out of the stroller or pram. This could result in suffocation and strangulation. A stroller or pram is not an alternative to a crib and should be used only for short periods of time during the day.
