joovy caboose tandeom or babytrend sit and stand
Permalink  
 


Im looking for a new double or even triple LOL (which joovy does make)

But does anyone have  a joovy tandem or babytrend sit and stand.

Im trying to see what I can do for when DH has to leave for a week and i have four kids to take to school I figured K can walk Raym can sit the baby can be in the front and scott can either hold my hand or Ill try to hold him (I know this even sounds ridiculous)

any feedback on these. Thanks.

i detest my sit n stand.

it doesn't steer well at all and since the kids heads are together (kwim?) my kids just horse around and/or torment eachother (poking eachother, etc).

I don't know specifically about your question but I would try to wear the baby and put the two boys in the double stroller.

hated my baby trend.

front seat is too small.

all they did was fight over who got to stand on the back.

 this does sound like a good Idea, although I was hoping to not have to remove the baby from the carseat. I used to have a bjorn but my back really killed from wearing it with my chest and the baby weight.

I wonder if theres a better baby wearing option that would make this work.

i have a joovy but i hate how it steers. i have a baby jogger city mini single and it pushes like a dream so i think that is why i hate that darn joovy so much.

i would wear the baby, look into a moby or sleepy wrap they are pretty much one in the same but a good babywearing option.

i also have a beco butterfly II that i LOVE!

the sleepy wrap i got new this time and have not used it just yet.

hmm Ill have to look into the beco butterfly II, if I remember right ABH said that she loved hers and Becca had reccomended it to her.

Is it easy on and off and to put the baby in and out?

 yes, but I must admit I have not used it on a newborn yet.  I got mine when Keegan was around 6 months old.

I hate my sit n stand.  It is sooo heavy and the kids usually end up switching the place they should be so Joe sits on the front which makes it even more heavy and awful to steer and B stands up on the back and refuses to be strapped in and then randomly jumps off when she wants to walk.  We used it for such a short amount of time too.

If I was doing it again I'd have gotten my Ergo carrier earlier (I only got it when B was 6 months and then soon after that it got too hot to use a carrier) and just pushed Joe around in the single.

I know you didn't mention the mcclaren double stroller (triumph I think), but my friend with twins swears by it. She would come to preschool with the twins in the stroller and her daughter walking. Granted you would still have to wear the baby. My niece and nephew a year apart also are pushed around in a mcclaren.
