Best Lightweight Double Strollers For Travel
If you’re exploring double strollers, you’re likely a seasoned parent who knows exactly what you need. Whether you’re expecting baby number two—or three or four—or simply upgrading for your dynamic duo, you’ve probably already realized that when it comes to strollers, less is more! With so many models designed to carry two little ones, how do you pinpoint what really matters? While full-sized, feature-packed, and convertible strollers can be impressive, our decades of experience working with families have shown that what parents truly value as their families grow is a stroller that’s lightweight, compact, and easy to use. Traditionally, double strollers have swung to extremes—either bulky, jogging-style tanks or ultra-basic umbrella versions that leave much to be desired. For years, there’s been a noticeable gap in the market for luxury lightweight double strollers. Thankfully, industry-leading brands have caught on and pivoted to meet the needs of modern families. Today, we’re finally seeing top contenders that check all the boxes for busy parents juggling two. Let’s dive into our top picks for the Best Lightweight Double Strollers. Best Lightweight Double Strollers Nuna TRVL Dubl Silver Cross Jet Double UPPAbaby Minu Duo Valco Trend Duo How We Chose the Best Lightweight Double Strollers At Bambi Baby, we’ve been guiding parents for over 40 years, helping families find products that truly make life easier. Our list of the best lightweight double strollers is carefully curated based on real parent feedback combined with our extensive industry experience and expertise. We narrowed our top choices down to four trusted brands, each offering the features that matter most to parents—ease of use, smooth steering, and car seat compatibility. Every stroller that made the cut boasts premium, luxury features designed to provide exceptional comfort and convenience for both you and your little ones. That said, each model also has its own unique strengths. Depending on your family’s lifestyle, certain standout features may make one stroller the perfect fit for you. Read on to discover where each of our top lightweight double strollers truly shines. Why Choose a Side-by-Side Double Stroller At first glance, you’ll notice that all four models on our list share a common thread—they’re side-by-side double strollers. While they each fall into the lightweight category compared to other double stroller designs, side-by-side models offer a clear advantage when it comes to ease of use. Unlike many in-line or tandem options that can be bulky and complicated, side-by-side strollers deliver a smoother, simpler, and more intuitive experience for parents. Here’s why they stand out: Effortless folding: Most side-by-side strollers fold in one quick step and as one piece, while many convertible or in-line models require removing seats or adapters first. Superior maneuverability: Whether you’re crossing the street or hopping a curb, side-by-side strollers handle more easily. In contrast, in-line models often place one child low and out front, making these everyday movements awkward or even impossible. Better visibility and bonding: With both children seated next to each other, you don’t have to decide who goes “on the bottom.” Parents can keep both little ones in sight—and within arm’s reach—for shared smiles and double the connection. Streamlined design: No conversion kits, no detachable parts, and no risk of forgetting a crucial piece at home. Side-by-side strollers are ready to roll whenever you are. Practical and compact: Generally, these strollers come at a more accessible price point, with lighter weight and smaller folded footprints than many in-line models. Surprisingly narrow footprint: Although they appear wider at first glance, most side-by-side doubles are only a few inches broader in wheelbase than their in-line counterparts. The wide appearance is often an illusion—many in-line strollers need extra wheel width to support two seats. In short, a side-by-side double stroller gives parents a perfect balance of comfort, control, and simplicity—without the bulk or hassle. Nuna TRVL Dubl - Best Luxury Lightweight Double Stroller Nuna is renowned for its premium materials, luxury finishes, and superior craftsmanship—and the Nuna TRVL Dubl lives up to that reputation. Designed for effortless use from birth through the toddler years, this stroller delivers a perfect blend of convenience, comfort, and style. Each seat offers a fully flat, newborn-ready recline and carriage mode, along with compatibility for Nuna infant car seats, ensuring flexibility for growing families. For toddlers, the TRVL Dubl provides multiple recline positions, adjustable footrests, extendable canopies, and breathable mesh panels for optimal airflow—all complemented by an included arm bar for added comfort. Parents will appreciate the one-step, one-handed automatic fold, intuitive magnetic buckle, and the option to purchase a travel bag with Nuna’s Boarding Pass Guarantee, offering extra peace of mind when traveling.

Strollers Compatible With the Nuna PIPA
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: Nuna PIPA Aire Nuna PIPA RX Nuna PIPA Aire RX Nuna PIPA Urbn 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.

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.

In recent years, they’ve brought their signature luxury and top-notch craftsmanship to strollers designed with modern families in mind. While Silver Cross strollers do not include infant car seat adapters in the box, each stroller model has a separately sold adapter that is compatible with Nuna PIPA infant car seats. Silver Cross Stroller Line-up Silver Cross Clic: Lightweight, cabin approved, travel - no adapter needed Silver Cross Jet: Lightweight, compact, cabin approved- adapter needed Silver Cross Reef: Full-size, all-terrain, luxury stroller - adapter needed Silver Cross Jet Double: Lightweight, side-by-side double- adapter needed Silver Cross Wave: Convertible, in-line double - adapter needed Additional adapter to hold two PIPAS for twins 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. UPPAbaby Stroller Line-up UPPAbaby Minu: Lightest weight, cabin approved, travel - adapter needed UPPAbaby Ridge: Jogging stroller, all-terrain - adapter needed UPPAbaby Cruz: Full-size, fully featured - adapter needed UPPAbaby Vista: Single-to-double, convertible stroller, all-terrain - adapter needed Lower Vista adapter available for twin use Ring adapter made by Nuna for UPPAbaby Cruz and Vista *At this time, UPPAbaby does not offer adapters to pair Nuna PIPA Infant Car Seats with the UPPAbaby Minu Duo. These two items are not compatible. 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.

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.

It’s the dependable workhorse that will carry your family through daily life with ease and comfort.

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.

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.

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.

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.

It provides the ultimate convenience and ease of use, with no extra pieces to attach or remove when folding the stroller.

This setup allows you to remove your baby’s car seat from the vehicle and click it directly onto the stroller—without unbuckling or disturbing your little one. While it’s always recommended to choose a stroller that offers a fully flat recline or a bassinet for newborn use, having travel system compatibility adds a level of convenience most parents find hard to pass up. All of Nuna’s strollers are compatible with all Nuna PIPA Infant Car Seats. Nuna’s PIPA series is known for industry-leading safety features, lightweight design, and GREENGUARD Gold Certification, which ensures cleaner air for your baby from day one. Depending on the model, some Nuna strollers offer direct compatibility—meaning the PIPA car seat clicks right in without adapters. The rest include adapters in the box for an easy connection. In short, every Nuna stroller can be used as a travel system with Nuna infant car seats. Now, let’s explore the current lineup of Nuna strollers.

Nuna EXEC Next All-in-One Convertible Car Seat | New Nuna Product Review 2025
The Nuna EXEC was first introduced by Nuna in 2021 and quickly gained popularity, piggybacking off the success of Nuna’s first convertible car seat, the RAVA. While the RAVA was — and still is — one of the most sought-after convertible car seats sold in the U.S., the Nuna EXEC offered a clear distinction: long-term value. The EXEC was introduced as Nuna’s all-in-one option, offering many of the same beloved features as the RAVA with extended rear-facing use up to 50 lbs and conversion to forward-facing harness mode. However, the EXEC can continue to be used past the harness mode, transitioning to a high-back booster, whereas the RAVA necessitates the additional purchase of a next-step booster seat. Furthermore, the EXEC incorporates an anti-rebound panel, reducing rotation on impact — a feature glaringly lacking on the RAVA. The EXEC has been a standout option for soon-to-be parents opting to skip an infant car seat and invest in a long-term solution that truly covers every age and stage of their child’s car seat journey. It also serves as a go-to option for parents looking for the next-stage car seat as their baby outgrows their infant carrier. Since 2021 the Nuna EXEC has remained fresh with new colors and styles added as older ones are discounted, but it has never seen any functional or safety upgrades — until now. With federal safety regulations and standards changing soon (anticipated in 2026), Nuna is staying ahead of the industry and has redesigned the EXEC to be compliant with these coming changes. What's New With the Nuna EXEC Next? Nuna EXEC vs. Nuna EXEC Next The Nuna EXEC Next features thoughtful new upgrades focused on safety, comfort, convenience and style. New Features: Larger cup holder New infant insert design Improved magnetic buckle holders Leather accents, similar to the LUMN™ Meets the upcoming safety standards, 213a and 213b Nuna EXEC Next Safety Features The Nuna EXEC Next offers best-in-class safety from its foundation to fabric choices. At its core it is built with an all-steel frame and reinforced belt path. From there, its shell is lined with Nuna’s proprietary Aeroflex foam coupled with Side Impact Protection pods that work together to absorb energy and distribute crash forces away from the child. Furthermore, the seat’s built-in anti-rebound panel prevents rotation in both rear- and forward-facing collisions, and its user-friendly installation method significantly reduces the risk of installation errors. Add in the seat’s naturally flame-resistant materials, which are free of harmful chemicals and contribute to the seat’s GREENGUARD Gold Certification — supporting your child’s respiratory health — and it’s safe to say the EXEC Next far surpasses U.S. safety standards and is leaps and bounds ahead of most car seats sold nationwide. Is the Nuna EXEC Next Worth the Price? Safety aside, the EXEC Next brings luxury details and features that make life easier for parents. It includes a no-rethread quick-adjusting harness and machine-washable, moisture-wicking fabrics. And for its little passenger there’s no skimping on comfort: multi-position recline, an extendable footrest, and an included cup holder make the EXEC Next as comfortable as it is functional. So if you only want the best for your child — as you should — we’d say the EXEC Next is definitely worth the price. While that price tag can be intimidating, unparalleled quality and safety for your most precious cargo is, effectively, priceless. Not to mention, when adding the cost of a standard convertible car seat plus the cost of a booster seat, that combination can far surpass the cost of the EXEC Next, which covers three stages of use in one.

We’ve got you covered — read on to learn why the EXEC Next may just be the best seat on the U.S. market. Nuna EXEC Next vs. Nuna RAVA If we’re talking best sellers, the Nuna RAVA is always at the top of the list. It is certainly no slouch, but pound for pound the EXEC Next is a far superior choice. It has better safety features, comfort features, and convenience features, and it significantly surpasses the RAVA’s years of use. Nevertheless, compared to similar models the RAVA continues to be an excellent choice. Let’s take a peek to see if the RAVA is the right choice for your family and why year after year it remains one of the most sought after convertible car seats. Why We Love the Nuna RAVA Quick and straight-forward installation process Compact fit when rear facing User-friendly features Extended rear facing capability Premium newborn, infant and toddler comfort GREENGUARD Gold Certified Consider Purchasing a Nuna RAVA if: You’re baby is outgrowing their infant car seat You have a compact vehicle or concerns with rear facing fit You are a tall parent in need of extra front of car leg room You want a luxury car seat at a more (comparably) accessible price point Choose the Nuna RAVA over the Nuna EXEC Next if: You’re seeking the more budget friendly option You plan to pass down your RAVA to a younger child and will purchase a booster or transitional seat when the time comes You would rather purchase a new next stage seat when your child outgrows a 5-point harness Choose the Nuna Exec Next over the Nuna RAVA if: You’ve done the math and recognize that although the Nuna EXEC is a higher price it is actually a more economical purchase compared to a Nuna RAVA purchase followed by a Nuna ACCE purchase You’re seeking a long term all-in-one solution You’re seeking the best in safety You need to fit three car seats across one row of seating Nuna RAVA Features: All-steel frame and reinforced belt path for superior protection EPO energy-absorbing foam Side Impact Protection (SIP) pods Simple and quick installation method True tension™ doors for effortless secure install Colored belt path indicators decrease risk of install errors User friendly quick-release 3 to 5-point harness 10-position recline for customized comfort Recline angle guides confirm proper riding angle Ventilation panels within the shell provide airflow Removable Infant head and body inserts Extendable calf support provides up to 2 inches of additional legroom for rear-facing and extra support forward-facing Premium moisture-wicking fabric provides for all-season Naturally flame resistant materials No fire-retardant chemicals Machine washable cover and inserts Dual flip-open cup holders FAA-Approved GREENGUARD Gold Certified Specs and Dimensions: Age Range: From birth to approximately 4 years old Recommended Use: Rear Facing: 5 to 50 lbs or 18 to 49 in (from birth to 2 years+) Forward Facing: 30 to 65 lbs or 34 to 49 in Weight: 27.9 lbs Dimensions: L 16 x W 19 x H 25 in Expiration: 10 years from manufacturer date Warranty: 2 years Accessories: Travel Bag Nuna EXEC Next vs. Nuna Lumn The Nuna LUMN is also a fairly new release from Nuna designed with the anticipated changes to side and frontal impact standards in mind. The LUMN and EXEC Next share a similar aesthetic — the most sophisticated looks from Nuna to date — and many of the same signature touches. It’s the place in your child’s car seat journey that creates the distinction between the two. While the EXEC Next can accommodate newborns and infants and offers a rear-facing installation, the LUMN is designed for older kids as a strictly forward-facing seat which conveniently also converts to a high-back booster. Read on to determine which seat is right for where your child is in their car seat journey. Why We Love the Nuna LUMN Transitional seat keeps child harnessed for longer 2-in-1 design Easy to install Advanced safety User friendly features Premium big kid comfort Forward facing seat with multiple recline options Pre-designed to meet upcoming safety standards (FMVSS No. 213a and 213b) GREENGUARD Gold Certification Consider Purchasing a Nuna LUMN if: You’re child is outgrowing their convertible car seat but you want to keep them harnessed as long as possible You’re infant is outgrowing their infant car seat and you want to transition them to your older child’s convertible car seat and need a long term solution for your older child You’re child wants a big kid seat but they are not ready for a booster You’re child is 4 years+ and over 40 lbs Choose the Nuna LUMN over the Nuna EXEC Next if: You no longer have a need (or future need) for a rear facing car seat Choose the Nuna EXEC Next Over the Nuna LUMN if: You’re transitioning your baby from an infant car seat to a next-step car seat You’re child is still within rear facing limits You plan to eventually pass it down to a younger child and move your older child into a booster Nuna LUMN Features: Harness to booster, covers the last stages of car seat use 5-point no-rethread harness stows away when converting to booster 9 recline options in both harness and booster modes when tethered Recline guides confirm the perfect riding angle 10-position height-adjustable headrest to accommodate growth Machine-washable fabrics and inserts– seat pad removes separately Slim design fits 3 across in most mid-sized vehicles FAA-certified for use in harness modeAll-steel frame and reinforced belt path Aeroflex™ side impact protection system Lightweight EPP foam absorbs energy Certified to latest side and frontal impact standards (FMVSS No. 213a and 213b) True tension™ door for a simple and secure install in harness mode Open belt path provides an easier path for booster-mode buckling Push on latch connectors secure the car seat to the vehicle anchor points Padded armrests All-weather micro knit fabric Leatherette-wrapped calf support Pop-out cup holders are removable and hand washable Naturally flame resistant materials Fire-retardant free GREENGUARD Gold Certified Specs and Dimensions: Age Range: Approximately 4 to 10 years old Recommended Use: Forward Facing with Harness: 30 to 65 lbs and 34 to 49 in High-back Booster: 40 to 110 lbs and 43 to 57 in Weight: 26.2 lbs Dimensions: L 26.25 x W 18.25 x H 32.5 in (varies based on recline and headrest position) Expiration: 10 years Warranty: 2 years Accessories: Travel Bag Nuna EXEC Next vs. Britax One4Life The Britax One4Life is the most comparable model to the Nuna EXEC Next but at a noticeably more affordable price point. It is also designed for use from birth to booster and features a similar quick and effortless installation process and naturally flame-resistant materials. Besides its accessible price point, the One4Life offers a convenient advantage not offered by the EXEC Next: its fabrics are machine washable and dryer safe. That means when it’s time for clean-up the process will be quicker. In contrast, the EXEC Next fabric is machine washable but must be line-dried. For the sake of weighing all possibilities and pointing out key distinctions, if your family frequently jet-sets, the EXEC Next will be the better choice. Nuna offers a travel bag that comes with their Boarding Pass program, providing travel insurance on your car seat when packed inside their bag. This peace of mind may be invaluable if you often take to the skies. Why We Love the Britax One4Life Accessible price point (comparably) All-in-One design Impressive crash protection Quick and straightforward installation process Machine washable and dryer safe User friendly features Long term value Consider Purchasing a Britax One4Life if: You want to invest in one car seat to cover every stage from birth to booster You’re infant is outgrowing their infant car seat You’re ready to transition your younger child from their infant car seat to your older child's convertible car seat and need a seat that will grow with your older child You’re advanced safety and long term use at the best value Choose the Britax One4Life over the Nuna EXEC Next if: You’re shopping on a budget and want to invest in a long term solution You prioritize quick cleaning and maintenance You are not concerned with fitting multiple car seats across one row Choose the Nuna EXEC Next over the Britax One4Life if: You’re prioritizing rear facing safety You’re shopping with an unlimited budget You need to fit three car seats across one row of seating You plan to travel by plane with your car seat You prefer a GREENGUARD Gold Certified car seat Britax One4Life Features: All-in-one design, use from birth to big kid 3 modes of use, rear facing, forward facing with harness and high back booster SafeCell base includes crumple zone that compresses to absorb crash forces Steel frame reinforces the seat structure to stabilize the seat in a collision 2 layers of side-impact protection 3 step, quick and secure seatbelt installation with Britax Clicktight method Color coded belt path for guided seatbelt routing Easy to read level indicators insure the correct installation angle Patented V-shaped tether strap includes stitching that gives away gradually to slow forward movement, reducing impact and minimizing rotation Energy-absorbing headrest follows the head's forward rotation in a crash, reducing whiplash Protective shell lined with energy absorbing foam Built-in cooling channels and ventilated mesh improve air flow Extra padding for premium comfortable SafeWash fabric is naturally flame resistant materials Flame-retardant free SafeWash cover is easily removable, machine washable and dryer safe 15 harness height positions accommodate growth Non-rethread harness 9 recline positions Dual built-in cup holders are dishwasher-safe Specs and Dimensions: Age Range: birth to approximately 10 years (birth to booster) Recommended Use: Rear Facing: 5 to 50 lbs and up to 49 in Forward Facing with harness: 22 to 65 lbs and up to 49 in High-back Booster: 40-120 lbs and 44 to 63 inches Weight: 30 lbs Dimensions: L 20.5 x W 19.5 x H 25 in Expiration: 10 years from manufacture date Warranty: 1 years Nuna EXEC Next vs. Cybex Calliso G 360 The Cybex Callisto G 360 is a heavyweight contender. It launched in the U.S. in late 2024 and has been flying off shelves (and out of stock rooms) ever since. The Callisto also features a convertible all-in-one design but adds a rotation feature. This swivel ability alone may be enough to turn your head. But that’s not all: the Callisto also features Cybex’s innovative SensorSafe technology, which connects your car seat via Bluetooth to your smartphone — a potential game changer. SensorSafe is built into the harness chest plate and monitors your baby’s temperature, sending alerts when the child is too hot or too cold, unbuckles themselves, or is left behind in the vehicle. Tech-loving parents may find that alone irresistible. Throw in the unique canopy included on the seat — practically non-existent in the world of convertible car seats — and it’s easy to see why the Callisto has quickly gained must-have status. But the EXEC Next does have benefits over the Callisto: it is more portable and easier to transition between vehicles — an important consideration for families that share one car seat between multiple rides. Also that travel bag we mentioned previously is still relevant. The EXEC Next is safeguarded against airline damage with the purchase of the Nuna travel bag. It is also a narrower design and a better choice for parents who need to fit three car seats across one row. Why We Love the Cybex Callisto G 360 360 swivel rotation Easily transitions from rear to forward facing with out having to reinstall All-in-one design, use from birth to booster Quick and easy installation Included, removable sun canopy SensorSafe chest clip Advanced safety Premium comfort at every age and stage The best long term investment GREENGUARD Gold Certified Consider Purchasing a Cybex Callisto G 360 if: You’re opting to skip and infant car seat and use the Callisto from newborn on You want to invest in one car seat to cover every stage from birth to booster You’re infant is outgrowing their infant car seat You’re ready to transition your younger child from their infant car seat to your older child's convertible car seat and need a seat that will grow with your older child You’re seeking the best in safety and long term value You have a tall SUV and challenges reaching into your vehicles back seat You or other caregivers have mobility issues You frequently transport children of different ages and need a seat that easily transitions from rear to forward facing and back again Choose a Cybex Callisto G 360 over the Nuna EXEC Next if: You have a need for a rotating car seat You’re a tech lover and appreciate Cybex’s SensorSafe chest clip You value unique features like a convertible car seat with a canopy! You’re shopping with an unlimited budget Choose a Nuna EXEC Next over the Cybex Callisto G 360 if: You need to fit 3 car seats across one row You frequently swap your car seat between multiple vehicles You plan to travel by plane with your car seat Cybex Callisto G 360 Features: All-in-One design from birth to big kid 3 Modes of Use: rear facing, forward-facing with harness, and belt-positioning high back booster 360 Rotation for easy ins and outs and transitions from rear to forward facing Steel reinforced frame Quick and easy installation Guided belt path for seat belt routing Anti-Rebound Base & SecureFix360 Tether, minimizes movement on impact for stability in both rear and forward-facing positions Built-in LSP (linear side-impact protection) system reduces side impact crash forces SensorSafe integrated into chest clip sends real time alerts via bluetooth to caregivers smart phone when temperatures are too hot or cold, if the child unbuckles themselves or is left behind in the vehicle 12-position height adjustable headrest Non-rethread harness for easy adjustments to accommodate growth Removable, multi-stage infant insert provides a secure fit for newborns to infants up to 20 lbs Magnetic buckle holders Oversized adjustable UPF50+ canopy Perforated shell and mesh fabrics for all around ventilation and temperature control 2 integrated removable, dishwasher safe cup holders Naturally flame resistant materials Flame retardant free - no added chemicals GREENGUARD Gold Certified Specs and Dimensions: Age Range: birth to approximately 10 years (birth to booster) Recommended Use: Rear Facing: 4 to 40 lbs and 17 to 43 in Forward Facing with harness: 26 to 65 lbs and 33 to 49 in High-back Booster: 40-120 lbs and 43 to 57 inches Weight: 35 lbs Dimensions: L 21.7 x W 19.5 x H 25.5 to 35.5 in Expiration: 10 years from manufacture date Warranty: 2 years In late 2025, Cybex also introduced the Cybex Callisto G 360 Select- Which is offered at a lower price point from the original model and does not include the SensorSafe chest clip or canopy. Final Thoughts: When to Purchase the Nuna EXEC Next The Nuna EXEC Next is a best-in-class — potentially the best-in-class — car seat option. While its price tag can be intimidating, as with any major purchase, you get what you pay for, and a car seat is not where you want to skimp. Its price reflects advanced safety, premium comfort, user-friendly design, smart material choice, and luxury features — all catering to your child for the long haul. This is an investment worth making. So when’s the right time to purchase an EXEC Next? If you’re expecting, it’s always smart to put it on your baby registry, whether you plan to use it from birth or store it until your infant car seat is outgrown. If it’s gifted to you, you won’t have to absorb the cost later on. If you weren’t gifted an EXEC Next, consider purchasing when your baby is around six months old, giving you plenty of time to get familiar with it before baby is ready to make the swap from their infant car seat. Wrapping it up: the Nuna EXEC Next is definitely worth considering because, well, your baby deserves the best.

Parenting 101
Babywearing 101
Babywearing isn’t some new parenting hack—it’s been around for centuries. Parents all over the world have carried their babies close in cloth wraps, slings, and carriers long before strollers were even a thing. And guess what? They were onto something. Because while the non-stop snuggles are pretty amazing, the perks go way beyond that. Babies cry less, you get your hands back, and suddenly grabbing groceries or making a sandwich feels possible again. Babywearing has this magical way of making newborn life just a little more doable (and gives you more of those sweet, snoozing-on-my-chest moments along the way). What Is Babywearing? The snuggles are reason enough, but babywearing comes with a whole list of practical perks too. Carried babies often cry less, sleep more soundly, and adjust more easily to life outside the womb. For parents, it’s a hands-free lifesaver. You can tackle the dishes, grab groceries, or just drink your coffee while it’s still hot, all without putting your baby down. Babywearing also makes bonding easier. With your little one right against your chest, you’ll notice the tiny cues—like rooting for a feed or giving a sleepy yawn—that can be easy to miss. And that closeness? It’s good for both of you, lowering stress and building confidence in your parenting instincts. That’s just the start. From supporting breastfeeding to encouraging healthy development, there are countless reasons parents swear by it. You can explore more in our guide to the 10 Benefits of Babywearing Every Parent Should Know → Do You Really Need a Baby Carrier? Plenty of parents wonder if a baby carrier is really necessary. After all, you probably already have a stroller, a swing, maybe even a bouncer or two. But ask parents who’ve been there, and you’ll hear the same thing: the baby carrier often becomes the gear MVP. Why? Because it goes where strollers can’t—through crowded stores, up narrow staircases, even just around the house when your baby refuses to nap anywhere but on you. Carriers keep your little one snug and comforted while giving you the freedom to move, multitask, or chase after an older sibling. Sure, babies love swings and bassinets, but nothing beats being close to you. And when you can keep them happy and free up your hands? That’s a parenting win you’ll always appreciate. Types of Baby Carriers One of the biggest surprises for new parents is just how many carrier styles are out there. The right one really depends on your lifestyle, comfort level, and how you plan to use it. Here’s a quick rundown of the main types: Stretchy WrapsA long piece of soft, stretchy fabric that you tie around yourself. They’re cozy, snug, and especially great for newborns. Think of them as the babywearing equivalent of sweatpants: comfy, forgiving, and perfect for the early days.Best for: newborn cuddles, the “fourth trimester,” and shorter wear times. Ring SlingsA length of woven fabric threaded through two rings to create an adjustable pouch. They’re quick to pop on and off, which makes them ideal for babies who like frequent ups and downs.Best for: quick errands, newborns, breastfeeding on the go, and caregivers who want something easy to share. Soft Structured Carriers (SSCs)Probably the style you’ve seen most often—these carriers have padded straps, buckles, and a structured panel for your baby. They’re user-friendly and can often be used from the newborn stage (sometimes with an insert) through toddlerhood.Best for: all-day wear, longer walks, sharing between caregivers, and growing with your child. Hybrid CarriersA cross between a wrap and a buckle carrier, hybrids offer the softness of fabric with the convenience of buckles. A good pick if you like the idea of wrapping but want something quicker to master.Best for: parents who want the comfort of a wrap with less of a learning curve. Frame CarriersThese look like hiking backpacks with a built-in seat for your baby. They’re not for everyday errands, but if you’re hitting the trails or spending lots of time outdoors, a frame carrier can’t be beat.Best for: hiking, outdoor adventures, and carrying toddlers for longer stretches. How to Choose the Right Baby Carrier Like all things baby gear, there’s no single “best” baby carrier—there’s just the one that fits your family’s needs. Some parents swear by wraps, others can’t live without their structured carrier, and plenty end up with more than one because life with a baby is unpredictable. When you’re deciding, it helps to think about how you’ll actually use it. Are you planning to wear your baby every day, or just when you’re out running errands? Will you be the main wearer, or will you share with a partner, grandparents, or a nanny? Do you live in a warm climate, or somewhere you’ll need to layer up for months of the year? Here are a few things worth keeping in mind as you shop: Ease of use: Some carriers have a learning curve (hello, wraps), while others are “click and go” with buckles. Longevity: A stretchy wrap may be perfect for the newborn phase, while a structured carrier often lasts well into toddlerhood. Feeding: If you’re breastfeeding, look for a carrier that’s easy to loosen or shift for nursing. Climate: Babywearing can get toasty. Breathable fabrics or mesh panels can make a big difference in warmer weather. Caregiver fit: Plus-size parents, taller or shorter caregivers—all benefit from adjustable carriers that are comfortable for you, not just the baby. The right choice is the one that keeps your little one happy and supported while making your day-to-day a little easier. Babywearing Safety Basics Babywearing is safe when done correctly, but there are a few important rules to keep in mind every time you use a carrier. These guidelines help ensure your baby is comfortable, supported, and most importantly—able to breathe freely. A helpful way to remember safe positioning is the T.I.C.K.S. rule: T is for Tight. Your carrier should feel snug, holding your baby close against your body without gaps. I is for In View at All Times. You should always be able to see your baby’s face without moving fabric or adjusting straps. C is for Close Enough to Kiss. The top of your baby’s head should be near your chin—you should be able to tilt your chin and kiss them easily. K is for Keep Chin Off the Chest. Your baby’s chin should never rest against their chest. Make sure there’s space (about a finger’s width) between chin and chest to keep their airway clear. S is for Supported Back. Your baby’s spine should be supported in a natural “C” shape, not slumping or arching away from you. In addition to T.I.C.K.S., it’s important to make sure your baby is in a hip-healthy position. That means their legs should be supported in an “M” shape: knees higher than their bottom, thighs spread around your torso, and hips well supported. This position encourages healthy hip development and helps prevent hip dysplasia. And remember: newborns and preemies have special needs. Always double-check head and neck support, and if your baby has medical concerns, talk with your pediatrician before using a carrier. When Can Your Baby Face Forward? It’s tempting to let your baby face the world early on, but for the first several months, inward-facing is best. Babies need time to develop strong neck and core muscles, and facing inward also helps keep their hips in the recommended “M” position for healthy development. Most experts, including the International Hip Dysplasia Institute (IHDI), recommend waiting until at least 6 months before turning your baby forward. At this point, many babies have the head and trunk control needed for a safe and comfortable ride. When you do switch, keep a few things in mind: Start with short stretches and watch for signs of overstimulation. Always follow your carrier’s age and weight guidelines. Remember that facing inward is still safe and comfortable well past the 6-month mark! Many parents and babies continue to prefer it. Facing forward can be exciting for your little one, but it should only happen when they’re physically ready. How Long Can You Use a Baby Carrier? There isn’t a single “end date” for babywearing—it really depends on your kiddo, your carrier, and what feels comfortable for you. Many parents use carriers most heavily during the first nine months, when babies crave constant closeness and aren’t mobile yet. But plenty keep wearing well into toddlerhood, especially for travel, errands, or outings where strollers aren’t practical. A few things to keep in mind: Weight and height limits: Always check your carrier’s guidelines. Some wraps are best for newborns, while many soft structured carriers can comfortably hold children up to 40+ pounds. Your comfort matters too: As your little one gets heavier, a more supportive carrier with padded straps and waist belts may make babywearing easier. Child preference: Some toddlers love the extra closeness and comfort, while others will decide they’d rather walk. Or both at the same time. Babywearing can be useful far beyond the newborn stage—it’s all about what works for your family. Babywearing FAQs Is babywearing safe for newborns?Yes—when done correctly, babywearing is safe from day one. Make sure your carrier supports your baby’s head and neck, their airway is always clear, and their face is visible. Can you babywear a preemie?Kangaroo care (skin-to-skin) is especially beneficial for premature babies, and many preemie parents use wraps or slings for closeness. That said, always check with your pediatrician before using a carrier with a preemie or medically fragile baby. Does babywearing cause hip dysplasia?No—when your baby is positioned correctly, babywearing does not cause hip dysplasia. But supporting their legs and hips in an “M” position is essential: knees higher than their bottom, thighs supported to the knee, and legs naturally wrapped around your torso. This position promotes healthy hip development and prevents excess strain. The International Hip Dysplasia Institute (IHDI) recommends choosing carriers that support the thighs rather than letting your baby’s legs dangle straight down. Always follow your carrier’s positioning guidelines, especially for newborns whose hips are still developing. Learn more about hip-healthy babywearing from IHDI → How long can a baby stay in a carrier at one time?There’s no strict limit, but it’s a good idea to take breaks to stretch and reposition your baby. Check frequently that their airway is clear, their legs are supported, and they’re comfortable. Can you breastfeed in a baby carrier?Yes—many parents find carriers helpful for nursing on the go (especially if you're more comfortable feeding discreetly in public). Just be sure to return your baby to an upright, supported position when feeding is done, and always keep their face visible. What’s the best baby carrier for dads?Any carrier can be a dad carrier! Many fathers prefer soft structured carriers with buckles and padded straps, while others love the closeness of a wrap or sling. Comfort for both caregiver and baby is what matters most. Is it normal to babywear a toddler?Absolutely! Some toddlers love the comfort of being worn, especially if you're traveling, (mostly) enduring a long outing, or somewhere with a lot of sensory input. As long as your carrier supports their weight and you’re both comfortable, toddler babywearing is completely normal. Why should you trust Bambi Baby?
