Newborns should not be transported in a stroller because they do not yet have sufficient head and neck control. Buggies are generally not designed to support the head and neck of newborns . They require a flatter and supportive lying position to properly support their delicate spine and avoid possible damage.
When transporting newborns, it is recommended to use strollers with a carrycot that offer a flat lying position and adequate support for the baby's head and neck. These options ensure safe and comfortable positioning for the baby during transport.
Children can usually use a buggy as soon as they can sit up unaided , usually between 6 and 9 months. It is important that the child is stable enough to sit safely in a buggy and not injure themselves during the ride. Parents should always check the manufacturer's instructions and recommendations regarding age and weight to ensure the buggy is suitable for the child.
