Hi first time mum here.

I am looking to buy a buggy but Iw ant somethinf quite light and compact that goes from birth and is good for old kids too. I basically want it to last.

There are so many on the market and they are expensive so I want to make a good choice.


If you are happy with yours. Pkease share with me the make and model.

Lightweight and compact is essential as we have stairs to climbs and narrow space only...


Thanks for your help.

We love our babyzen yoyo.. not cheap but very compact (can even take onboard planes as handluggage), lightweight, seems well built, lots of accessories if you want / as needs change etc.. there's a reason why you see them all over London! Go to any playground in East Dulwich and the majority will be babyzen yoyos ;)


And of course congrats new mum! Good luck

We have a Bugaboo Bee and it's been a really good choice for us. Not quite as lightweight/compact at the Yoyo but has parent or world facing options at all stages and felt a sturdier buggy to us. Has been very versatile now we also have a newborn and a toddler. Surprisingly decent sized basket underneath too :) Good luck with your choice!

Our first baby zen yoyo lasted 5 years through 3 children and had we done some basic maintenance on the wheels, it would still be going. They rusted to the axle eventually and we just got a new one - again, 5 years on! Also happy with the buggy board attachment. It is definitely the best buggy for hauling up and down stairs (we live on the 4th floor), the trade-offs regarding space never much impacted us.


Good luck!

    • I'm sure they have good reasons, yet safety for the residents who pay the CT should be a priority. £63 million on Other Services?  
    • Southwark Council have a £70m budget shortfall over the next three years, largely driven by the raising cost of adult social care, children’s social care and homelessness. I am sure they’d like to prioritise street cleaning more, but this isn’t realistic. If you’re interested in a breakdown of how they spend their money, the headlines are here:  https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-tax/how-we-manage-council-tax/our-budget-and-how-we-spend-council-tax/our-income-and I’m sure there are areas where the council could make better decisions or be more efficient, but they’re working in a very challenging financial context.
    • Would you not expect clean streets to be a priority? Rather than suggesting those in Southwark pay more, would it not be more relevant that Southwark actually prioritise it and explain what they are spending our money on.   
    • Batter than closing the whole line down all weekend which they do very often on that line.
