It can be used to accommodate two carrycots, carseats, or toddler seats when your child is old enough.

Other stylish options include the Babybee LUNA pram. This extremely safe and stylish double pram is specifically designed to fit infants aged between birth and five years old. Both seats independently recline to a completely flat position (which is recommended for infants until they are around 6 months old). The LUNA can be used in conjunction with the cozy LUNA newborn cocoon or two car seats, and it conforms to all Australian safety standards.

Non-convertible side-byside double prams can be an ideal option, particularly for families with children close in age. But, it's important to keep in mind that these types of prams are generally larger than other double buggies and can be difficult to manoeuvre on footpaths that are crowded and up and down kerbs.

If you want a less bulky alternative look into the Cybex DUO2 that is available in mono and duo mode. It has an enormous basket that is placed behind the seat when in parent-facing mode. The seat can be reversed so you can have your baby facing either you or the rest of the world.
