Whether it's a trip to the zoo, a walk to the park, or a visit to the mall...a stroller is a must-have for any parent with young children. Depending on the situation, we find there are times when a double stroller comes in more handy, and other times when a smaller, more compact single stroller is ideal! With baby #3 due to arrive in just a couple of months, we've been keeping our eye out for a high quality single stroller which is why I was thankful when I came across Mamas & Papas line of lightweight strollers!

A family-owned business, committed to giving parents around the world the very best in stylish and practical baby products...this #1 baby brand in Great Britain offers many essentials for new parents. With everything from award-winning bouncers, high chairs and more...you're sure to find exactly what you need.


- Lightweight (11.4lbs) and easy to carry with shoulder strap
- Breathable mesh seat
- Easy to maneuver with lockable front swivel wheels
- Compact umbrella fold
- Foam handles for a comfortable push
- Five point fixed safety harness
- Adjustable harness height to three positions
- Suitable from 6 months to 50 lbs
- Locks in place when folded
The compact umbrella fold also makes it easy to store and keep in the back of a vehicle. With two little ones and another on the way, I need a stroller that I can easily grab out of my SUV. That's why the Trip stroller appeals to me so much! In my opinion, convenience is a must when it comes to baby gear and this stroller seems like a great choice when it comes to those quick trips out with the kids.
The thing that I love most, is that it's evident Mamas & Papas took care in creating a stroller that would suit the needs of both children and parents alike. Not only is it lightweight and easy to transport, but there are several features which stand out to me as being a must-have for baby and parent.
For those warmer, sunny days, the Trip stroller features a breathable mesh seat in vibrant apple, blueberry or cherry colors, as well as a removable canopy. There's even an included rain cover for the rainy days. The umbrella stroller also comes with lockable front swivel wheels to give parents complete control, and a deep shopping basket for keeping the essentials close at hand. Storage is a must and I was happy to see there is plenty of space for diaper bags, shopping bags, and other things parents carry with them when they're out and about.

If you're looking for quality, style, comfort and convenience...I would highly recommend checking out Mamas & Papas and their line of baby products.
