Which baby stroller? Babyzen YOYO – a compact stroller that changes with the child

Baby strollers are a topic of discussion - choosing the right model is for parents like choosing a car. When buying a stroller, we want our little one to be able to travel safely and comfortably from the first days of life. It would also be good if the stroller lasted longer - preferably until preschool age - and was ergonomic enough to adapt to our lifestyle. A walk in the park? A bus ride? Transport by car or travel by plane? For a good stroller, this shouldn't be a problem. This is what the iconic Babyzen Yoyo is like - super compact, light, functional and long-lasting.

In the article below you will read:

• why it is worth investing in one stroller that will last for years
• what distinguishes light and foldable strollers from others
• what to pay attention to when choosing a stroller
• why the compact Babyzen YOYO stroller has gained cult status and is the most visible stroller at airports and large cities
• how to transport baby strollers when traveling by plane
• what stroller accessories will be useful for every parent.

Which stroller should I choose? A lightweight, foldable stroller that will last for years.

Imagine that you are buying a stroller for a child: first a gondola (or a large 2-in-1 stroller), and then an urban umbrella stroller. This is a classic solution that seems logical - at first, the baby needs a safe and comfortable space to lie down, and only then is it ready for a stroller. However, anyone who has seen a traditional stroller with a gondola knows how clumsy these models are. They are difficult to operate on tight city sidewalks or in cafes/shops and they take up a lot of space in the trunk, so for people who move a lot around the city, often drive, like to use urban spaces such as restaurants, galleries, museums or travel a lot, they are not very functional. What about the stroller? Classic umbrella strollers are light, but often have poor shock absorption and are not very durable.

What if we could combine the lightness and compactness of travelers' strollers with the safe and solid frame of traditional wózkóws? Absolutely - such a compact stroller will serve us for years, and at the same time it will not pose a problem in everyday situations (queue at the post office, meeting in a cafe with a friend, tenement house with a small elevator) and will be perfect for smaller or larger trips. This is a win-win situation.

What are the advantages of a lightweight foldable stroller?

You live in an apartment with a small elevator (or no elevator) and you don't have much space at home to store a stroller - Babyzen Yoyo is the perfect choice. It will fit anywhere, and if there is no elevator, you can carry your child on your shoulder and fold the stroller with one hand and hang it on the other shoulder like a handbag.

If you travel by car or public transport - and you need something that will adapt to your lifestyle and at the same time provide your little one with safe and comfortable transport, choose a lightweight foldable car. Not only can you easily lift it (also in the postpartum period - classic strollers are too heavy for a new mother to carry them herself when putting them in the trunk, or up the stairs at a metro station, for example) and carry them, but you can also fit them into the smallest trunk, and you can also easily get on a tram, find a seat on a crowded bus, or go through the turnstiles at a metro station. This is one of the reasons why Babyzen Yoyo is the most popular choice among parents from big cities, where everyone uses public transport or travels in small cars to make parking easier.

If you travel a lot - this is the perfect choice for people who love traveling by plane and train. The Babyzen Yoyo stroller will fit in a tight aisle between seats, as well as in the luggage compartment. You can take it with you on board the plane, which firstly prevents you from picking up a damaged stroller after the flight, and secondly, it makes the journey much easier and improves the baby's comfort at the airport.

In addition to the newborn, you also have an older child under your care who still needs your attention and assistance during walks - Babyzen offers great solutions for mothers with many children. There is an option to connect the stroller with the Babyzen Yoyo Conncect frame, which allows you to create a double stroller in various configurations - for twins (e.g. two gondolas, two strollers) or for children with a small age difference, gondola + stroller. In addition, we have the option of attaching a very comfortable footrest with a seat for an older child, which will ensure comfort and safety for older siblings while walking, and give us a greater sense of control over the situation.

A compact stroller that will last for years - why is it worth considering investing in one?

Choosing a stroller is usually divided into choosing a gondola and a stroller. Many parents use two or even three models during the entire stroller phase because they choose those that have a short shelf life. What if we considered investing in one model that would serve us for years?

These are the compact Babyzen Yoyo strollers - they accompany the child from the moment of birth, and then transform into a comfortable and light stroller in which the toddler can travel while sitting. The important thing is that their frame is one, and only the "upper" parts are replaceable, so that even intothe stroller with a gondola is ultra-light and extremely easy to transport, and it is also a much cheaper solution for the parent. The cost of the complete Babyzen Yoyo stroller (from the newborn gondola to the version with a stroller for an older child) is approximately twice as low as the cost of purchasing a classic 2-in-1 stroller.

Babyzen YOYO – the perfect compact stroller

Let's get to the main character of this article - wózka Babyzen YOYO. Why is it the most visible stroller in European cities and airports? Its phenomenon lies primarily in its versatility - you buy one model that serves your child at all stages: at the beginning it is a typical stroller with a gondola, and then it transforms into a light, portable stroller. Regardless of what we do with this stroller and what form it takes, it is always extremely functional, handy and perfect for everyday use and travel.

Babyzen YOYO as a stroller for a newborn baby

The Babyzen YOYO stroller serves your child from birth. This is the first way to use it - as a classic stroller with a gondola. Unlike other strollers, Babyzen YOYO, even in this version, is extremely light and handy; It's still an easy-to-transport stroller that will fit anywhere.

Element one: wózkaframe

The stroller frame, common to all variants, weighs only 6.1 kg - a weight that even a woman after giving birth can easily lift. The biggest advantage of the Babyzen frame, however, is its folding: simple and extremely quick. What's more, the frame folds to the size of hand luggage, and thanks to the attached shoulder strap it is very convenient to carry - like a handbag. Babyzen will fit not only into the smallest car trunk, but also into an airplane.

Element two: gondola for wózka

Do you associate a stroller gondola with a heavy and clumsy nest? Then you are in for a pleasant surprise - Babyzen gondola weighs 3.4 kg and anyone can easily lift it. Its lightness goes hand in hand with safety and great quality, because the gondola is deep, well-built, comfortably wraps the baby, and is also equipped with a ventilated canopy and is in line with other products of this type from popular companies. Attaching it to the frame is as easy as folding the stroller itself - just place the gondola on the frame and attach it with one click. Simple, right?

Babyzen as a foldable stroller for newborns

If you particularly want your baby stroller to be handy and ultra-compact, choose the Babyzen stroller in the version with newborn kit. This is a solution for parents who want to assemble the stroller completely, without the need to detach any elements.

YOYO with a set for newborns is a great alternative to a traditional gondola that still ensures the child's safety: the baby lies flat in a comfortable nest, and the five-point harness ensures its stability. The biggest advantage of this version of Babyzen, however, is the magical folding of this stroller - just one hand and a few seconds are enough for the entire stroller to fold into a single, small element without the need to dismantle any part before folding. This is an ideal solution for parents who travel a lot around the city and need a stroller that can adapt to almost any conditions. With the Babyzen stroller and newborn set, you can comfortably board a bus, train or plane: just take your baby in your arms, fold the stroller with your other hand in the blink of an eye, lift it and freely enter any room, climb stairs, get into a taxi or pack the stroller into the car.

YOYO stroller - a stroller for special tasks

There comes a time when a gondola or a newborn set are no longer enough, because the baby has grown and wants to discover the world while sitting. Fortunately, you have Babyzen YOYO and you don't have to worry about buying a completely new stroller - just match the color set and the YOYO stroller turns into a compact and light stroller.

Let's focus for a moment on the strollers themselves. There are plenty of them on the market: bucket strollers, traditional strollers, off-road strollers and travel strollers. Each will work in different situations, but their assumption is common to each model: the child should sit comfortably and stably.

From what age can a child go for a walk? It is assumed that from the sixth month, this is when most children master the art of sitting independently or sitting stably with support. In practice, however, it looks a bit different and depends on the type of stroller. There are parents who use flat-folding strollers to transport 4-month-old children who have outgrown the gondola. Another perspective: some gondolas are so spacious that they can accommodate even a seven-month-old baby, and if he also likes to lie down and feels good in the gondola, riding in the stroller is naturally postponed.

The YOYO stroller draws inspiration from every type of stroller and was created to meet parents' expectations. First of all, it is still the same stroller that accompanies the child from the first moments - so we only buy an additional color set (a we have beautiful and aesthetic colors to choose from),whichóry consists of a seat and a hood. Secondly, the YOYO stroller is as comfortable as traditional and larger strollers, but at the same time it has all the advantages of travel strollers. Finally, thirdly, you can take this wózek with you everywhere. It weighs next to nothing and takes up no more space than a women's handbag. Car? Subway? Coffeehouse? Plane? No problem - grab your little one under your arm, put the stroller on your shoulder and travel wherever you want.

Thanks to the fact that this stroller is multifunctional, you can easily use it in any situation. It will be an ideal stroller for a one-year-old child, a two-year-old or even a three-year-old, especially during long walks. Besides - and this must also be added - YOYO is simply exceptionally aesthetic.

Plane travel strollers – what should you pay attention to?

The YOYO stroller is designed for travel, including - and perhaps especially - the sky-high ones. When purchasing a travel stroller, however, we must take into account several factors that will make traveling by plane easier. These include:the standards of most airlines, safety standards and rules for the transport of children.

Rules for transporting baby strollers on a plane

Most airlines offer parents the option of transporting a stroller. Some models - especially oversized ones - must be checked in when checking in your baggage, but the downside of this solution is the lack of a stroller for the child during the rest of the time at the airport. In the end, we are left without a stroller, but with carry-on bags and a baby in our arms. It's hard to imagine, isn't it? It has little to do with comfortable traveling.

If the stroller is foldable, airlines allow you to use it until boarding - then we give our stroller to the crew, but we do not always get it right after landing. In such a situation, it often happens that the strollers are handed out only at the airport, at the place where oversized baggage is collected. Also: that's not exactly what we want.

And here comes the YOYO stroller - a wózek that folds to the size of hand luggage. You can drive it right to the plane, where you can fold the stroller and, like a bag, take it with you on board. After landing, you can unfold it and transport your baby comfortably. This is what I call comfortable traveling with a child.

Note: Although the Babyzen YOYO stroller folds to fit hand luggage dimensions, please check the exact dimensions of hand luggage approved by your airline before departure - these may vary slightly.

Trolley accessories

What would a baby stroller be without matching accessories that make life easier? What the manufacturers of the Babyzen stroller offer is a well-thought-out vision that makes their work functional and versatile. Seriously, they even made stroller skis.

Attachable skis to the Babyzen YOYO stroller

Let's start with these skis, because they are a real hit. Thanks to skis attached to the front wheels, the stroller will glide safely and freely on the snow like a skier on the slope. Moving through snow-covered parks or slippery sidewalks will become easy and pleasant. They can be attached to the front wheels with one click without having to remove the child from the stroller. No more uncomfortable driving the stroller on snow-covered terrain and no more wheels sinking into the snow. These skis are also a must-have for mountain dwellers or winter sports enthusiasts for whom a toddler in a stroller is no obstacle. It is worth adding that the stroller with skis attached is still compact - you don't even have to detach them to fold or unfold the stroller in one move.

Frame for connecting trolleys

Now something that parents of twins or children with a small age difference will love - frame for connecting strollers Babyzen YOYO Connect.

Thanks to this frame, with just one click, we get a functional and comfortable double stroller for two children. The frame has several configurations and can be used as follows:

• two gondolas
• two strollers
• gondola + stroller (in case of small age difference between children).

Thanks to this, if our elder still uses a stroller and we are expecting another child, we can only buy a connecting frame instead of a second stroller.

Walk however you want and use this frame when you need it. Are you picking up an older child from nursery with your baby? Simply fold the frame and hang it on the back of the stroller like a backpack, and unfold it only when necessary.

It is worth adding that the YOYO is still an ultra-light and very agile model - even in this configuration it remains extremely easy to drive and can cope with narrow streets, curbs and urban spaces. It also provides children with stability and safety, and the folding system is the same as in the case of a single YOYO stroller - simple and quick. Traveling by plane? Don't worry: this stroller is accepted as hand luggage.

Extra bed for an older child

Since we are on the subject of having two children, let's imagine the following situation: You are walking with a toddler in a stroller, and an older one is walking happily next to you. It's nice and pleasant, until at some point your little one gives up: his legs hurt, the walk gets boring and the prospect of walking more meters becomes practically impossible. You can't hold the baby in your arms because the stroller won't move itself. What are you doing? You are in control of the situation - you sit the elderly person on a comfortable bed and continue walking.

Extra bed for an older child is a must-have in such situations. Children are not always willing to cooperate during longer walks or they simply envy their younger siblings who lie carelessly in the stroller, and the comfortable seat allows them to rest without having to stop every few steps. It's also fun for them - they can sit or stand on a safe saddle while mom pushes the stroller.

Attaching the bed is as easy as other accessories to the Babyzen stroller. You can attach it with one hand and one click, and when you no longer need it, you can easily store it in a convenient position. And again - a win-win situation.

Babyzen YOYO stroller bag - comfortable shopping with your child

Thanks to this bag you can splurge in a grocery store or supermarket without worrying about how you will bring your purchases home. Not only is the bag attached to the trolley, but it is also equipped with a wheel - this makes it extremely durable and can accommodate up to ten kilos of shopping without tilting or destabilizing the trolley.

Don't think that pushing the stroller with a bag attached will be difficult - YOYO is still agile and ultra-light. No more exhausting returns from shopping.

Car seat adapters

Do you want to attach a car seat to the frame of the Babyzen stroller? No problem - just easily attach the seat to the YOYO stroller and safely transport your newborn home, to the doctor or to the store.

Babyzen YOYO stroller backpack

This backpack is a must-have for every traveling family. After folding the Babyzen stroller, put it in a light backpack and carry it on your shoulder, on your back or store it in a chosen place. You can also attach the backpack to your suitcase with a special strap, so you can conveniently transport the stroller without having to carry it. On the train, on the plane, in the car or even on board the ship - you can take the YOYO stroller anywhere.

Umbrella for the stroller

The canopy doesn't always work - probably every owner of a stroller knows this. Protect your baby from the sun's rays with the Babyzen stroller umbrella, which will provide additional shade and SPF 50+ protection.

Muff gloves for the Babyzen stroller

And now something for parents whose hands get cold while walking. Gloves are not always functional because they make it impossible to quickly answer the phone, reply to a message or comfortably catch the baby. Thanks to these muffs - which are attached to the stroller's handlebar - parents will warm their hands and, if necessary, remove their hands in the blink of an eye. This is a winter essential that makes walks even more enjoyable.

Cup holder

Going for a walk with a coffee to go is pleasant and loved by most mothers. However, situations with children can be unpredictable, and we are left with a cup in our hand, which we have nowhere to put - it is during such moments that a cup holder will come in handy. But not only that: you can put any drink or bottle of liquid that you want to have at hand there. You can also attach the holder to the frame closer to the child. Thanks to this, the toddler sitting in the stroller will easily reach for his bionic with water on his own.

Footrest for a stroller

The YOYO stroller will be a perfect complement to footrest for a child. It guarantees even more convenient travel and comfort for the baby - especially during a nap, and thanks to the adjustable position, you can adjust it to individual needs so that the baby's legs do not hang. Its attachment to the stroller is quick, and the vehicle itself folds easily with the attached footrest.

Rain cover

Is it for gondola or for the stroller - the rain cover will work in every configuration of the YOYO stroller. This is an extremely useful thing that is always worth keeping in the back pocket of the stroller. In case of bad weather, it protects the child from rain or snow.

Mosquito net for stroller

You can also equip the YOYO stroller with a mosquito net: for gondola, do newborn pack or do stroller. Thanks to it, walks in the forest or park will be comfortable and safe, because the mosquito net protects the baby against all insects and at the same time ensures adequate air circulation.
