A 2 in 1 highchair in 1 Travel System

Whether you are looking to get around with ease or create a modern take on a pram, the car seat and stroller combo is the best choice. Verify the specifications to ensure that your car seat and stroller are compatible, or you can consider buying an adapter.

Editor-tested travel systems let you transfer your newborn baby in a seamless manner from the car to the stroller, without disturbing them. Some travel systems include a carrycot to encourage the natural sleeping.

Car Seat

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

The best option is the Doona infant car seat and latch base, which receives an incredible 90% of five-star reviews on Amazon. It's a rear-facing car seat that drops down into a rolling stroller--the transition is quick and easy. When not in use the wheels can be folded away and it's small. The Doona also attaches to the back of a car using the LATCH base, which is rigid, or to taxi-safe belt paths making it a great choice for commuters and city families.

The Mamas & Papas pramette another great car seat/stroller combination. It has the pram with a hood which opens and a front seat that can be adjusted to allow your child to lay down for nap time or for feedings. It comes with a large basket, cup holders, and an umbrella shade for your baby's necessities. The stroller seat features a multi-position reclining seat and can recline to a flat, making sure your baby is comfortable on every ride.

Other important car seat features to consider are the weight and height limits, as well as whether the infant car seat can be used only with a car belt for backseats or has an extra layer of protection, with a built-in rigid LATCH system. Look for a lock on the handle to secure the handle in place. You can also tilt the handle towards the back seatback to create an anti-rebound bar.

It's worth noting that travel systems work only with infant car seats--and extended-use car seats that later turn forward-facing do not transform into strollers. Many moms opt to purchase a separate car seat and stroller once their child grows out of an infant seat.

Stroller

A stroller is a vital piece of equipment for new parents. Some travel systems come with the baby pram that can be transformed into a comfortable infant carrycot. This is ideal for parents who do not want to disturb their infant while traveling. Depending on the brand, some also feature the option of a stroller and car seat combination that can be connected to one another. This means that you can keep your child safely secure in the car seat, and then transfer them to a pushchair without disturbing them, which is great for long journeys and busy shopping centers.

A good stroller should have many features that make it easy to use and practical. It should have a large storage basket that can hold essential items such as nappies as well as toys and snacks. It can also recline so that your child can rest comfortably. It should also include an adequate canopy to shield your baby from sun and a lockable front wheel for extra security. Lastly it should be light and compact to make it easy to store or transport to and from the car.

Travel system strollers that have been tested by editors, like the UPPAbaby Cruz v2 Combo and Chicco Keyfit Caddy, offer convenience as they can be connected to a variety of top car seats. These car seats click onto the frame to be connected and fold up quickly. Some models have one wheel on each leg, making them easier to maneuver and move across different surfaces.

The best strollers are capable of carrying your child throughout toddlerhood and beyond and allow you to continue to use it to take your child to and from activities such as school, play dates and other events. To do this, choose a stroller that has a seat that faces the world (and reclines) once your baby outgrows the car seat.

If you plan on using your 2 In 1 pushchair pram-in-1 travel system on public transportation you should look for a model with an ISOFIX base so it's safe to hop on and off buses or trains. Some models, such as the Doona can also be installed on trains and planes to make traveling with a baby even easier.
