I have 8 month old twin boys and a 2 year old daughter. I want to get a double stroller that has a seat for my daughter so I do not have push a single stroller. I am having trouble finding out. Has anyone ever come across one or has any suggestions? Thanks!! J.

What can I do next?

There are a couple of strollers that give you the option for the roller board in the back. The phil and ted stroller is fun and you can probably put an attachment in the back. There is a catalog called One Step Ahead and they have attachments for the back of the stroller to accomodate another child.

A friend has a triple stroller but it is set up different than any I've ever seen. It's one seat in the front and 2 seats side by side behind the front single seat. It's made by Valco. It's nice because it's no wider than a double stroller. She has an almost 5 yo, an almost 4 yo and a 7 month old and they all fit great. I just looked it up on line and almost fainted at the price though .

I don't know how helpful this will be but when I was looking at options for my toddler when I was pregnant with my 2nd, I saw this seat that attaches to the side of most strollers. I chose a double stroller instead because I thought if he wanted to lean back it didn't have that option. But he never sleeps in the stroller anyway and at this point walks most of the time, so it was actually more viable than I thought it would have been.

HI

I used the Seat-To-Go by litaf when I had the tandem snap and go. it is a stand and sit that attached to the stroller. Very convenient and detachable if your toddler is not with you. It is pretty cheap to.
Then I had a side-by side umbrella stroller when they where 8 month and older and I attached a buggy board to it. The board attaches and detaches in seconds. It works really well and all three kids are confient to a small area.
For longer outings I have a jogging stoller with a bar in the front and I attached baby carrier to the front and put one in the carrier and two in the stoller and off we went.

Hope these ideas help.

I believe Joovy (not sure of spelling) makes a sit and stand with double seats and a sit/stand position as well. I had the Joovy with the single seat and the sit/stand position and LOVED it :) Good luck!

Get a double stroller with a standing platform for your daughter - everyone has these platforms in England and I have been seeing them more around here. I searched "stroller with platform" and amazon sells several. So you can just buy your double and get the attachment.

Why not just get a stroller for triplets. My daughter is 3 and she still wants to be able to lay back to sleep when we're out. If she can't get comfortable, she gets very fussy. Even though she's 3, she's still a baby. I think it would make it easier for you. Sometimes that little seat in the back of a stroller just isn't enough. Onestepahead.com has a triplet stroller if you're interested. Good luck!!

You could try tripplestrollers.net for a variety of triple strollers, Joovy also has one. No matter which route you go It's going to be expensive.

I have a Valco double stroller for my kids and I know there is a seat attachment that can be added to the front of the stroller. I think the attachment seat can hold up to 50 lbs. The stroller is fairly expensive though (it was the only thing we had to buy for my second child, so we splurged alittle). Good luck and hope you find what you need.

My friend has twin girls and a toddler boy. She has the Joovy "Big" Caboose and loves it. A bench seat for the toddler and two sitter seats for the twins. Good luck! (Regular Joovy caboose only seats one toddler and one baby)
