One of the most exciting parts of baby’s first year is adventures with the whole family. This guide will walk through general tips and stroller reccomendations, but always consult your pediatrician on these questions. 

When Can Baby Sit in Stroller​?

Most babies can sit in a stroller once they have enough head and neck control to sit upright safely. Consult your pediatrician before getting started. 

When Can Baby Sit in a Front Facing Stroller​?

Most babies are ready to sit in a front facing stroller once they have head, neck and core control (usually around 6 to 9 months). Here are additional signs:

  • Baby can sit upright without support
  • Strong head and neck control
  • Comfortable being out of the car seat for extended periods

Infant Stroller Safety

Look for strollers with reclining seats and a 5-point safety harness for support. Look for strollers with infant car seat compatibility, like the Voya Stroller Wagon, to extend the life of the product as your child grows.
