Many tandems can be converted to a single pushchair when your oldest child is no longer using the second seat.

However, one disadvantage of a tandem is that it may be a bit heavy and lengthy to steer especially when bumping up or down kerbs, and it is often less stable than a twin pram, especially if the child who is older is sitting in the front. A tandem can be difficult to fit onto public transport and can be difficult to maneuver on narrow roads.

Side by side
There are a lot of things to think about when selecting a double pram or pushchair. There are numerous configuration options to choose from, whether you're purchasing for twins or close-in-age siblings. Tandem prams (also called side by sides prams) are a popular choice because they can be configured to fit infants in a bassinet on the top, while the larger toddler or infant is in the seat below.
Some models come with convertible seats, which means you can adapt the configuration to your family's requirements throughout the baby and toddler years. This allows you to see your children at all times, and allows them to connect with them when they walk.

If your child gets bored of the rumble chair, you can switch to the single pram mode. You may also opt to use the adaptors for car capsules to transform it from a newborn to toddler travel system.

Some convertible double strollers like the Baby Jogger City Select 2 have a carrycot that is suitable for newborns. This allows the double stroller to be folded down and reduced in size when not used. The City Select's innovative folding system that is one-handed impressed our test subjects, but it takes some time to master. It's also very responsive and nimble in spite of its size.
The Cybex Mockingbird single-to-double stroller is an alternative that is affordable. It converts from a car seat with a parent seat to a forward-facing toddler car seat, and the bassinet mode is a great choice for infants (although remember that babies under four months old shouldn't be able to sleep in strollers due to the risk of asphyxia in a position).
For more flexibility, look for a dual-mode convertible like the iCandy Peach. This is a narrow double stroller that can hold two children at the same time. It can also be used to create a tandem by incorporating a second seat kit. It's nimble and responsive, and our testers loved its sleek design.

It weighs just 18 pounds, is compact, and has a self standing fold, making it easy to transport or store in your trunk. Parents appreciate the high-quality materials and workmanship, and the affordable cost.
