UPPAbaby Ridge All-Terrain Jogging Stroller
Strollers are always near the top of the to-do list for expectant families. They are the essential bit of kit that’s going to make parent life that little bit more manageable. Whether you’re fighting pregnancy-fog looking for the perfect compact stroller for baby number one, or tackling mum-brain to upgrade or add to your collection, our carefully curated selection of premium single strollers will make your decision much easier.
Each stroller has its own combination of features and attributes. Some boast effortless set-up and pack down (ideal for jumping in and out of cabs on busy roadsides), others connect to a wide range of car seats, some offer smoother rides or come with an array of stroller accessories. Some are lighter than others, others are ultra-stylish, some even convert into double strollers with nifty add-ons. Scroll below to find the strollers that have your dream set of features.
Finding the perfect single stroller
We have a comprehensive stroller buying guide that walks you through everything you need to consider to connect you with the perfect single stroller, but let's start simple.
Think about where your day takes you. Is there uneven terrain, small or crowded spaces, long distances, unpredictable weather? Do you see the set-up and pack down of your stroller being a regular or rare event? How important are aesthetics to you? Do you have plans to grow your family in the near future?
Answering these few questions can help you strike some of our strollers out of contention. You can view it as a process of elimination. We’ve done the bulk of it for you. The strollers we’ve curated in our collection are already the best models from the best brands, Stokke YOYO (formerly known as BABYZEN), UPPAbaby and many more. You just need to pare our selection down to the perfect one for you and your family.
Do I need a stroller if I have a baby carrier?
Babywearing is an excellent space-saving option for our compact city, but there are certain situations where a single stroller is invaluable. We see strollers as more than just for getting around. They can be a chair, a bed, a play space, a safety restraint… Being able to lay bubs down when they’re looking like nodding off can free you up to enjoy your meal, try on that outfit you’ve been eyeing off, or just go to the bathroom! It’s lovely to keep your little one close to your heart, but sometimes we all need a little space, and in our balmy weather, a little air! Your baby could be cool and comfy in the shade of the stroller’s canopy, and you can give yourself a bit of breathing room too.
While newborn carriers seem ideal initially, your little bundle of joy is only going to stay little for the shortest time. Strollers take lots of the heavy lifting out of parenting, saving your back, legs and feet from the ravages of carrying a surprisingly heavy little person around all day. Starting young establishes a positive relationship with the stroller, making it a place where your child will feel safe, secure and happy in. This becomes all the more important when your little one grows into a strong-willed toddler who will have it their way at all costs!
