What is the best bag to attach to a pram?
The best bag to attach to a pram sits on the handlebar without tipping the pram, keeps your phone, keys and a bottle within reach, and comes off in seconds when you get to the cafe. The Heiych H-Connect does this as a pram caddy with the H-Pram Straps, then wears four more ways: crossbody, tote, mini bag and clutch. It fits an iPad and has insulated bottle pockets.
Key takeaways
- Hang light, not heavy: a big bag on the handlebar can tip a pram.
- A pram caddy keeps the things you reach for most at hand height.
- Look for adjustable straps so it fits your handlebar.
- Pair a small caddy with a backpack for the bigger load.
- Choose a bag that keeps working once the pram is gone.
How to choose a bag for your pram
Most parents try hanging their main bag on the handlebar first. These five points explain why a smaller caddy works better.
1. Keep the weight low
A full nappy bag on the handlebar can tip the pram backwards when you lift the baby out. Put the heavy items in the basket or on your back.
2. Keep the essentials high
Your phone, keys, cards, a dummy and a bottle are what you reach for on a walk. The H-Connect holds these at hand height.
3. Straps that adjust
The H-Pram Straps are adjustable, so they wrap around different handlebars and keep the bag steady.
4. Off in seconds
When you arrive, unclip it and wear it crossbody, so you are not leaving your phone and cards on an empty pram.
5. A second life
With five ways to wear it, the H-Connect becomes your everyday crossbody, a clutch for dinner and a mini tote long after the pram is sold.
