Choosing a baby stroller can feel like buying a car—so many options, features, and price tags! As a first-time parent, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Should you get a lightweight one? A travel system? One that can recline flat?
Don’t worry—we’ve got you. In this guide, we’ll break down what really matters when choosing the best stroller for your baby and lifestyle.

1. Consider Your Lifestyle
Ask yourself:
Do you go out often for walks or shopping?
Will you be using it mostly in malls, or outdoors on uneven paths?
Do you travel often or need something compact for your car?
If you're an urban parent who needs to navigate tight spaces, go for a lightweight, compact stroller. If you love parks and nature walks, choose a stroller with strong wheels and suspension.

2. Newborn-Friendly vs. Older Baby
Not all strollers are suitable for newborns.
Look for:
Fully reclining seat or
Compatibility with a newborn bassinet or car seat
If your baby is under 6 months, the stroller must support a flat or near-flat recline to protect their developing spine.

3. One-Hand Fold & Storage Space
When you're holding a baby (or shopping bags), you'll appreciate a stroller that folds easily with one hand.
Also check:
Basket size: Can it hold your diaper bag?
Folded size: Will it fit in your car boot?

4. Safety First
Always look for:
5-point harness
Strong brake system
Sun canopy (UV protection)
Certified safety standards
Don't forget to test the stability—make sure it doesn’t topple easily, especially if you hang a diaper bag on the handle.
