Strollers Compatible With the Nuna PIPA

Stephanie Giustino

Bambi Baby has been serving families and guiding them into parenthood for decades. Over the years, we’ve heard all the most pressing questions from new parents as they begin to explore the essential gear they’ll need to navigate life with their baby. But there’s one question we don’t get asked as often as you might expect: “What’s the most popular infant car seat?”

You’d think, as a baby gear retailer, we’d hear this question multiple times a day—but the answer has become common knowledge among families nationwide. Still, if you don’t know already, we’re happy to share it with you: the most popular infant car seat is the Nuna PIPA.

Nuna launched the original PIPA in the U.S. over a decade ago, introducing advanced safety technology that had previously only been available in Europe. Since then, Nuna has continued to refine and improve the PIPA with each new iteration—culminating in the Nuna PIPA Series, which now includes four models. Each shares the same core DNA that has made the PIPA the most coveted infant car seat among American families.

Nuna PIPA infant car seats check all the boxes parents are looking for in the most important piece of baby gear: industry-leading safety, premium and responsibly sourced materials, flame-retardant-free fabrics, lightweight design, and GREENGUARD Certification—all from a brand with an impeccable reputation and the trust of parents worldwide.

So, if the most expected question—“What is the most popular infant car seat?”—is the one we never actually get, what do we hear from soon-to-be parents every day? Since most have already made the no-brainer decision to bring their baby home in a Nuna PIPA, the question we get most often is: “What strollers are compatible with the Nuna PIPA?”

We’re here to answer that question for you! We love talking car seat compatibility—and even more, we love helping parents find the perfect stroller to fit both their lifestyle and their Nuna PIPA.

Nuna PIPA Infant Car Seat Series

Nuna currently offers four infant car seat models:

The PIPA Aire, PIPA RX, and PIPA Aire RX are sold separately from Nuna Strollers, giving parents the flexibility to mix and match with a variety of Nuna strollers—or even pair with compatible models from other stroller brands.

At this time, the PIPA Urbn is available only as part of a travel system, meaning it comes bundled exclusively with select Nuna strollers. While this may limit your stroller options, being "stuck" with a Nuna stroller is hardly a drawback. Nuna’s lineup features best-in-class models across every stroller category, so chances are high you’ll find a PIPA Urbn travel system that fits your family’s lifestyle like a glove.

To learn about each Nuna PIPA and decide which is the best for your family, refer to our article "Nuna PIPA Series Infant Car Seat Comparison: What is the best Nuna PIPA?"

Nuna PIPA Stroller Compatibility

With Nuna PIPA Series Infant Car Seats being recognized as some of the most popular worldwide, one might assume Nuna restricts compatibility to their own strollers, leaving parents with only Nuna models to choose from. Fortunately, that’s not the case!

Nuna designs every PIPA with flexible stroller compatibility in mind. Each model in the PIPA Series features the same universal connection points, allowing it to pair with any stroller brand that offers universal Maxi-Cosi–style post adapters.

Even though the Nuna PIPA Urbn always comes boxed with a Nuna stroller, it too shares the same connection points. This gives parents the freedom to branch out to different stroller brands as their family grows and their needs change.

There are two types of adapters compatible with Nuna PIPA Series Infant Car Seats:

  • Ring Adapter: Nuna uses a ring adapter to pair PIPA infant car seats with most of their own strollers. The ring adapter is a single piece that clicks into the stroller frame. The PIPA simply rests on the ring, and a latch built into the back of every PIPA seat locks it securely in place. To remove the seat, you disengage the latch and lift it off.

  • Universal Post Adapters: These adapters come as two separate pieces—one for each side of the stroller frame. The PIPA is then lined up with both posts and clicked into place, engaging each post simultaneously. To remove the seat, press the two buttons located at the top of each side of the car seat and lift it off the adapters.

There’s a clear advantage to choosing Nuna strollers that include a ring adapter: it offers the ultimate ease of use, and being a one-piece adapter, it’s also much easier to keep track of! However, ring adapters are also available for several popular stroller models in the U.S.—and we’ll dive into those shortly. Some strollers even offer a direct connection with Nuna PIPA infant car seats, which makes things even more convenient!

Are Adapters Needed for the Nuna PIPA?

Adapters are typically required to pair a Nuna PIPA Series infant car seat with a stroller. While universal-style adapters exist that can fit multiple car seat brands, they aren’t universal to stroller models. Each stroller—regardless of brand—usually has its own dedicated adapter specifically designed to match its connection points.

It’s very important to ensure you choose an adapter that’s approved for use with your Nuna PIPA and is compatible with your stroller.

Many strollers now come with their infant car seat adapters included, saving parents both the guesswork and the extra cost. However, in some cases, adapters are sold separately, so it’s always best to double-check before purchasing.

 

Nuna Strollers Compatible With the Nuna PIPA

As expected, all Nuna PIPA infant car seats are compatible with every stroller model in the Nuna lineup. Nuna offers a diverse assortment of strollers, each intentionally designed to meet different lifestyle needs. So, if you want to stay brand-loyal and style-conscious with a cohesive, on-brand travel system, you’re guaranteed to find the perfect stroller for your family among Nuna’s thoughtfully curated options.

Cybex Strollers Compatible With the  Nuna PIPA

Cybex is an industry leader in safety and innovation. While Cybex manufactures its own infant car seats with advanced safety features comparable to Nuna, they do tend to be a bit heavier. For parents seeking a lighter-weight option, Nuna is often the top pick.

Although Cybex offers on-brand travel system options, the added weight of their car seats frequently leads parents to choose Nuna instead. Fortunately, most Cybex strollers come with infant car seat adapters included that fit both Cybex and Nuna infant car seats, allowing parents to choose the model that best fits their needs. When adapters are not included with the stroller purchase, they are available for purchase separately.

UPPAbaby  Strollers Compatible With the Nuna PIPA

UPPAbaby is a name as synonymous with baby gear as the Nuna PIPA itself. Just as the PIPA is one of the most popular infant car seats, it’s common knowledge that the UPPAbaby Vista is among the most beloved strollers for U.S. families. UPPAbaby designs its products with parents in mind, prioritizing ease of use, safety, style, and functionality.

UPPAbaby offers separately sold Maxi-Cosi–style adapters for each of their stroller models (excluding the Minu Duo) that allow pairing with Nuna PIPA infant car seats.

And remember that ring adapter we mentioned earlier for other popular brands? You guessed it—Nuna manufactures a ring adapter specifically designed for the UPPAbaby Cruz and Vista models, allowing parents to enjoy the best of both worlds with an easy, seamless, and ultra-convenient stroller and car seat connection.

Best Compact Travel Strollers Compatible With the Nuna PIPA

Historically, a lightweight stroller has been an afterthought for many parents—something they start to consider once they’re tired of lugging around their full-size stroller or are preparing for a vacation. That’s usually when the bells start ringing that something lighter might be needed.

However, stroller design has come a long way. Today’s compact travel strollers pack a surprising punch, offering many of the beloved features once found only in bulky full-size models—and the best part? Many are also infant car seat compatible.

We strongly recommend having a compact, travel-size stroller ready from the day you bring your baby home. These strollers are incredibly convenient for daily use and travel, fitting easily in and out of the car, taking up minimal trunk space, and not requiring bodybuilder strength to lift and store.

That said, don’t count out full-size models. If all-terrain performance is a must for your family, consider pairing a compact travel stroller with a full-size stroller to cover all your family’s needs—from day one and through every stage that follows.

Best Mid-Size, Lightweight Strollers Compatible With the Nuna PIPA

Mid-size strollers typically weigh around 20 pounds and are significantly lighter than standard full-size strollers. Despite the lighter weight, most mid-size models still offer all the features parents love: all-wheel suspension, large storage baskets, reversible seats, and car seat compatibility—all in a more manageable frame.

Mid-size strollers shine in city living. They’re nimble enough to maneuver busy sidewalks, perform well over cobblestones and uneven roads, and remain light enough to carry up stairs or onto public transportation without a struggle.

Best Full Size Strollers Compatible With the Nuna PIPA

For parents seeking the ultimate luxury experience, full-size strollers are the way to go. These models are packed with every feature you could want—and some you might not even have thought of yet. If your stroller will be your main mode of transportation, a reliable, durable, high-quality full-size stroller is a must. It’s the dependable workhorse that will carry your family through daily life with ease and comfort.

Best Convertible Strollers Compatible With the Nuna PIPA

Single-to-double, or “convertible,” strollers are sold as single strollers but stand out for their ability to transition into doubles with the addition of conversion pieces. Typically part of the full-size category, these strollers are a smart investment for planners who like to think ahead.

If you’re always preparing for the future, a convertible stroller is an excellent choice—it’s ready to expand right alongside your growing family.

When your family expands, so does your stroller. If a new baby is on the way, you’ll need room for two. All the convertible strollers mentioned above can function as double strollers—whether by purchasing expansion pieces or purchasing everything needed to use as double from the start.

Traditional side-by-side strollers shouldn’t be overlooked either. They offer simplicity, streamlined usability, and premium features, along with a convenient one-piece fold and no complicated moving parts—something every parent of two can appreciate.

Twin parents need double the convenience—and we’re happy to report that many of our most popular options are excellent choices for twins.

What twin parents need most is a stroller that can hold two infant car seats. Those first few months adjusting to life with two babies shouldn’t be stressful because your gear can’t keep up. Having a stroller that accommodates two infant car seats is essential for twin parents.

Luckily, we have a great selection of strollers that can hold two Nuna PIPA infant car seats. So, pick your PIPA—times two—and explore our list of top twin-ready options that will not disappoint.

Best Stroller-Wagons Compatible With the Nuna PIPA

Stroller wagons are a fantastic choice for adventurous families who love spending time outdoors. If you’re looking to move away from the traditional stroller and want something that can truly handle life off the beaten path, a stroller wagon might be your perfect match.

They’re especially practical for parents with multiple children—or those who often find themselves caring for friends’ kids, too. Depending on the model, stroller wagons can comfortably hold one to four children.

The best part? A wagon’s usefulness doesn’t end once your kids outgrow stroller rides. They continue to serve as handy haulers for sports gear, groceries, or beach equipment. A stroller wagon is an investment that keeps giving back through every stage of parenthood.

Strollers That Take A Nuna PIPA Infant Car Seat Without Adapters

Nuna TRVL Lx with PIPA Urbn

 

Direct compatibility—where the car seat connects to the stroller without an adapter—is always a major win for parents. It provides the ultimate convenience and ease of use, with no extra pieces to attach or remove when folding the stroller. There’s no risk of misplacing that essential part or realizing you’ve accidentally left it at home.

If you’re torn between two stroller models and one offers a direct connection, that feature alone might make your decision a lot easier. While these options are still relatively rare, the few that do exist are definite favorites among parents.
