Find models with comfortable cushioned seats, an adjustable handlebar height and recline function to allow you to put your child to sleep. It's also worth checking that the pushchair can be set in either 'parent facing' (or rear-facing) or 'world facing', if your child is older and wants to look around and see what's happening around them.
