Hi first time mum here.

I am looking to buy a buggy but Iw ant somethinf quite light and compact that goes from birth and is good for old kids too. I basically want it to last.

There are so many on the market and they are expensive so I want to make a good choice.


If you are happy with yours. Pkease share with me the make and model.

Lightweight and compact is essential as we have stairs to climbs and narrow space only...


Thanks for your help.

We love our babyzen yoyo.. not cheap but very compact (can even take onboard planes as handluggage), lightweight, seems well built, lots of accessories if you want / as needs change etc.. there's a reason why you see them all over London! Go to any playground in East Dulwich and the majority will be babyzen yoyos ;)


And of course congrats new mum! Good luck

We have a Bugaboo Bee and it's been a really good choice for us. Not quite as lightweight/compact at the Yoyo but has parent or world facing options at all stages and felt a sturdier buggy to us. Has been very versatile now we also have a newborn and a toddler. Surprisingly decent sized basket underneath too :) Good luck with your choice!

Our first baby zen yoyo lasted 5 years through 3 children and had we done some basic maintenance on the wheels, it would still be going. They rusted to the axle eventually and we just got a new one - again, 5 years on! Also happy with the buggy board attachment. It is definitely the best buggy for hauling up and down stairs (we live on the 4th floor), the trade-offs regarding space never much impacted us.


Good luck!

    • I am sure what the new plan is but who knows how the postal service will work from here onwards 
    • My experience is that my local letter box does have week-day-ly collections - but I think very early in the morning, not at the old 'around 5.00pm' times. There are several daily collections from the box outside the Forest Hill Road sub-post office. I don't think the 'Monday' tab is now ever changed. Mail collections from boxes have got nothing to do with the service we (don't) get from the Peckham Delivery Office. Your Wednesday 12th posting would probably only have been collected on Thursday 13th, if it was posted after 9.00am. If it was being delivered in East Dulwich (where the Peckham DO does come into play) then getting it by the following Tuesday is probably par for the course.
    • Are there no daily collections from post boxes any more? On Wednesday Feb 12 I posted a Valentine's Card in the postbox which is about 20 metres from our house to make sure it arrived by Feb 14 (yes I know I could've put it thru letterbox but that's not as romantic is it). After I posted it I noticed the little metal thingy said "Monday" but I thought this must be a mistake and had not been changed. However, Valentine's Day came and went and no card arrived. In fact it arrived on the following Tuesday, Feb 18 so I'm guessing the Monday collection metal thingy was correct. Has it ever been announced officially that there are no longer daily collections from letterboxes? I remember a time, not even that long ago, when the red postman pat van would pull up at least twice a day, every weekday.    
    • My lovely tuxedo cat, Rexy, has been missing since Wednesday which is very out of character. Rodwell Road area, SE22. He is a rescue cat so really quite timid with people he doesn’t know. If you spot him, could you please contact me? Many thanks. He is chipped and neutered.  Photos attached.
