As a new or expecting parent, you are preparing for your little one’s arrival. There are so many decisions you need to make, things you need to buy, and a room that needs to be decorated. But what about traveling? Have you decided about the travel system? Moreover, you might be wondering about the buzz around travel systems.
A travel system is when an infant stroller and a car seat click together for parent’s convenience on the go. If you asked yourself ‘when the stroller is for six months and up, how do I stroll with my newborn?” and the most essential one “how to get my sleeping baby from the car seat to the stroller?’.
Brands tend to advertise travel systems as a package deal, you get a stroller and an infant car seat, all in one purchase. Now, you can stroll with your less than 6-month-old baby, by simply clicking the car seat into the stroller.
Here’s the dilemma, what if you’ve found infant car seat and stroller that you love, however, they’re not from the same brand? Or you found a stroller that you love but it doesn’t come in a travel system bundle? Is it possible to make your travel system? Sometimes, yes you can because not every infant car seat will be compatible with every stroller. But how can you know if the ones you picked are indeed a good fit?
Unfortunately, there’s no car seat + stroller matchmaking site. But, in this article, we’ve compiled all the best strollers and the infant car seats that fit with them. We’ve also added the adapters you need to make them fit. This list also consists of the top three infant car seats (Chicco, Nuna, and UPPAbaby) and the strollers they will work perfectly with.
Tip: If you are looking for a specific stroller or car seat, simply use cmd+F (Mac) or ctrl+F (Windows) to search them by model or brand. This is an extremely long list, so feel free to skip over the brands you’re not looking for!
Additionally: Kindly use car seat + stroller matches that are approved by the manufacturer. Before you build your travel system, be sure to check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
