Which is better a stroller or a pram?
Traditionally, the main difference between a stroller and a pram is that prams are designed to let your baby lie flat while strollers have them seated. But these days, many strollers and prams have seats that recline, bassinet attachments and other features that mean you can use them as your little one grows. So, you may want to look at a range of prams and strollers, focusing on their features rather than the name. It’s also important to think about the features you want and need both now and in the future. That way, you can find the best stroller (or pram) for you and your family.
