Umbrella Strollers

In the world of strollers, umbrella strollers (also known as lightweight or compact strollers) are designed for parents who are constantly on the go. These strollers are perfect for quick stops, navigating crowded streets, and fitting into tight storage spaces. If you live in NYC, this is the “I have to make a quick run to the store” stroller you need. If you want a stroller that you can grab with one hand, fold and unfold easily, and maneuver effortlessly . . . all while holding a child in your other arm, an umbrella stroller is soon going to be your best friend. Here at Albee Baby, we have a big, hand-curated selection of small, lightweight strollers that are perfect for you. 

Why Choose an Umbrella Stroller?

Umbrella strollers are the ultimate solution for parents seeking convenience without sacrificing quality. Even though they are known for their compact size, these strollers offer a range of amenities like cushioned seats, sunshades, and storage space under the seat (more than you’d think). While umbrella strollers may not have the extensive storage space of a full-size stroller, they make up for it with greater maneuverability and ease of use. Whether you're navigating store aisles or busy sidewalks in San Francisco, umbrella strollers provide the flexibility and comfort you need. And they’ve come such a long way from the quality and comfortability you remember from your own childhood.

Safety and Comfort

If you’ve read any other pages on our site, you’ll know how important safety is to us. Well, we’re going to say it again here–safety is paramount. Our selection includes hand-selected models from top-tier brands that are known for their safety, reliability, and performance. These strollers feature sturdy frames, secure harness systems, and comfortable seating for your little one–and usually a lot more features, too. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines to ensure your stroller meets your needs, of course, but know you’re in good hands picking any of these strollers.

Choosing Your Umbrella Stroller

When selecting an umbrella stroller, consider your specific needs and lifestyle. Think about where you'll be using the stroller most often—flat surfaces or uneven terrain—and choose a model with the appropriate wheel size and stability. If you require additional features like cup holders, feeding trays, or extra storage, make sure to look for these amenities. Space-saving and ultra-lightweight designs are perfect for parents who need a compact and easy-to-use solution for their daily outings. Maybe you want to check to see if it’s airplane approved. Do you want a model that you can wear over your shoulder? So many variations, but one of these strollers will end up the perfect stroller for you.
