SKIPPY PRAMS

When choosing the right wheels for your little one, knowing the difference between a pram and a stroller can make all the difference—especially when it comes to comfort, convenience, and your little one's age.

A pram is specifically built with newborns in mind. It offers a fully flat recline or a bassinet allowing babies to lay flat, which supports healthy development in those early months. They’re great for longer outings and everyday use, but usually a little bulkier because of all the extras.A stroller, by comparison, is more streamlined. It’s made for babies who are ready to sit upright and for toddlers on the go.

Strollers are lighter, fold more compactly, and are perfect for travel or quick errands. Some models, like our Skippy Mate, include a near-flat recline, so they can be used from birth without needing a bassinet.

Since all SKIPPY strollers offer a flat laying seat, they can be used as prams. So needn't worry whichever you get. When using our strollers for newborns, we always recommend using the newborn head support insert to add an extra layer of protection for your little one.

For the first few months of life, your baby’s spine is still developing, which is why a completely flat lying position is so important.

A pram bassinet provides a secure, spacious, and lie-flat environment—perfect for newborns who need gentle support and uninterrupted rest.It’s generally recommended to use a bassinet for babies from birth up to around 6 months of age, or until they start to roll or sit up on their own—whichever comes first.

At Skippy Prams, you have two safe and newborn-friendly options:

1. A dedicated bassinet attachment
2. A lay-flat seat with a newborn head support

Both allow your baby to lie flat, but they serve different needs. The bassinet is designed purely for rest and comfort. It attaches to the pram frame and can be lifted off and placed on the ground—ideal for naps on the go. Yes, this means it can be used as a stand-alone carry cot while detatched from the pram. Because it doesn’t require a harness, it offers more room and a cozy, cradle-like feel. Once your little one outgrows the bassinet, they will need to transition to a seat.

The lay-flat seat, on the other hand, is a practical solution if you prefer to use the main pram seat from day one. Your newborn stays safely secured with the 5-point harness, and snug with the head support, while the seat reclines flat to support healthy spine alignment. All Skippy prams offer a fully flat backrest, so you needn't worry about checking each product's alightment capacity.

If you're looking to reduce bulk or save on costs, starting with the lie-flat seat might be the right move. But if you plan to walk daily or want maximum comfort for your little one, a bassinet is hard to beat.
