Baby Carriages or Prams



You may be the type of person who loves the elegant look of traditional baby carriages or prams. These old-fashioned style strollers consist of a solid, backward-facing bassinet on a frame with four large fixed wheels. However, if you prefer a more modern look, you also have the option of choosing a swivel-wheel stroller with a detachable bassinet that can be replaced with a seat when your baby is older.

You may want to check out the Classica carriages by Inglesina. This company also carries a line of bassinets that attach to their strollers. The Mountain Buggy Urban Carrycot is another more casual option. If going for leisurely strolls with your newborn sounds appealing to you, this may be just what you’re looking for.

Did You Know?

Did you know that the traditional baby carriage has been in existence since the 1700’s? It was invented in 1733 by English architect William Kent for the 3rd Duke of Devonshire's children. Then in 1889, an American, William H. Richardson, patented an improvement on it. It was the only style of baby vehicle on the market until 1965, when a British aeronautical engineer named Owen Maclaren created the modern baby stroller.
