Prams & Strollers Australia - Find the Right Pram for Your Family
Choosing the right pram is one of the biggest purchases you will make as a new parent - and it is one you will use every single day. At Peekaboo Baby, we carry a carefully selected range of prams and strollers to suit every family, every budget, and every lifestyle. Whether you need a full travel system that takes your baby from newborn bassinet to toddler seat, a compact stroller for navigating busy city streets, or a robust all-terrain pram for weekend adventures, our range has you covered. All prams and strollers we stock meet Australian safety standards and come from brands trusted by Australian parents.
A pram rarely travels alone. Kit yours out with the right accessories: a pram organiser keeps your keys, phone, and coffee within reach; a pram liner adds comfort and makes cleaning easy; and a range of stroller accessories - from footmuffs to sunshades - help you handle every season. For the days a pram is not practical, pair with a baby carrier so you always have a hands-free option.
What to look for when choosing a pram
- Newborn suitability - Not all strollers are safe from birth. Look for a lie-flat bassinet or carrycot attachment for newborns. Babies need to lie fully flat until they can hold their head up independently, usually around four to six months.
- Fold style and size - A one-hand fold is essential when you are holding a baby. Consider how compact it folds and whether it fits easily in your car boot. If you use public transport, check the folded dimensions.
- Wheels and suspension - Foam-filled or air-filled tyres handle uneven footpaths, parks, and gravel far better than hard plastic wheels. If you walk a lot or live near rough terrain, suspension quality is one of the most important factors.
- Weight - Lighter prams are easier to lift into the car but often sacrifice suspension, storage, or durability. Strike a balance that suits how you actually use it day to day.
- Canopy coverage - Australia’s UV levels are among the highest in the world. Look for a large canopy with UPF 50+ rating and a peek-a-boo window so you can check on your baby without disturbing them.
- Storage basket - You will carry far more than you expect. A deep, easy-access basket underneath the seat is one of the most underrated features of any pram - and one you will appreciate on every single outing.

Prams & Strollers - Frequently Asked Questions
A pram (short for perambulator) is designed for newborns and young babies who need to lie flat. It typically features a bassinet or carrycot and is built for longer distances and comfort. A stroller is generally more upright, lighter, and better suited to babies from around six months who can sit with some support. Many modern travel systems combine both, converting from a flat bassinet to a reclined or upright stroller seat as your baby grows.
Upright stroller seats are suitable from around six months, once babies can hold their head up and sit with support. For newborns, always use a pram with a lie-flat bassinet or a compatible infant car seat adapter. Using a semi-reclined seat too early can compromise a newborn’s airway - always check the manufacturer’s age and weight guidelines for any specific product.
Many prams offer travel system compatibility, meaning you can click an infant car seat directly onto the pram chassis without disturbing a sleeping baby. Car seat compatibility varies by brand and model - check product listings for compatible car seat brands. Keep in mind that infants should not spend extended periods in a semi-reclined car seat position outside of travel, as it can affect their breathing.
A travel system is a pram chassis that can accommodate a bassinet for newborns, a toddler seat for older babies, and often a compatible infant car seat - all on the same frame. Travel systems offer excellent long-term value because one chassis takes your child through multiple stages. They tend to be larger and heavier than standalone strollers, so consider your boot space and storage before purchasing.
Yes. All prams and strollers sold at Peekaboo Baby meet Australian safety standards. We stock products from reputable brands with demonstrated safety testing and certification. Prams and strollers sold in Australia must comply with AS/NZS 8811.1, which covers stability, restraint systems, and structural integrity. Always register your product with the manufacturer so you receive recall notices if any are issued.
If you have two children under three, a double pram is likely worth the investment. Side-by-side doubles are wider but easier for children to interact; tandem doubles (front and back) are narrower and more door-friendly. Some single prams offer a toddler board attachment as a more compact alternative. If you are expecting a second baby, it is worth considering pram compatibility with a toddler board before purchasing.
