Introduction

Safety harness/restraint system is an important feature of a stroller, and as parents, you must ensure the stroller comes equipped with the best kind of restraint system.

These are easy to put on, and keep the baby safe. You can choose from a 3-Point or 5-Point harness as mentioned in the guide below.

Earlier, three-point seat-belts were more common; these belts circle the waist and come up between the legs. However, most strollers nowadays come with a 5-point harness (at least the best ones do).

If you are looking for a jogging stroller, you should make sure the stroller has a five-point restraint system (shoulder straps) since running will result in your child being bounced around. The shoulder belts will keep them in place comfortably even when jogging, and the buckle is also comfortable against the child.

Note: Even though these straps/harness work absolutely fine, some parents always put on the tray too, to avoid taking any chances.

3-Point vs 5-Point Harness Stroller

Strollers come with a 5-point harness or a 3-point harness. While the 5-point harness costs more, it offers better safety.

There are many who’re unable to decide whether they should pay extra to get a 5 point (includes shoulder harness) over a 3-point (which includes only the lap harness).

The 3-point harness makes the stroller lighter, but only marginally. However, its easier for kids to get out of it as a three-point harness doesn’t have the shoulder straps (Smart kids figure out a way to climb out of it).

A 5-pt harness offers better protection (due to the extra shoulder strap); most recent strollers come with a 5-pt harness.

Why you need a 5-Point Harness

The five-point harness is used to buckle up children, tightly holding them to the seat with the use of five different straps.

The five-point harness consists of five straps – two at the shoulders, two at the hips, and one at the crotch that all connect together via a buckle release mechanism.

It holds the childs’ body tight in the seat (be it in a stroller, trailer, car seat), which in turn protects the child from getting injured.

These belts are suitable for most children tricycle, baby stroller, pushchair, electric car and bicycle baby seat.

In general:

  • Buckles should be easy to use (for parents) but difficult for small hands to unfasten.
  • The straps should be height-adjustable for a proper fit; the strap should fit snugly around your child.
  • A strong, durable waist strap is a must
  • It should be comfortable for the child; you get padded straps

 

Stroller harness extension straps

Are the straps / harness on your baby’s stroller/pushchair too small or too tight for your baby?

You can extend your harness straps on your strollers by buying stroller harness extension straps, thus making extra space for your toddler. Usually, these are sold as a pair of 2 straps only (you may not get to buy just one).

Closing Thoughts

All strollers come with safety straps/harness. As a parent, you should make it a habit to have the harness fastened, even if the baby is not going to be in the stroller for a long time. Even if the baby is sleeping, you should strap them in; just in case the baby wakes up. It’s better to be extra careful because it only takes seconds for an accident to happen. Make sure that the stroller has a 5-point harness, so there is a strap that comes up between the child’s legs. This prevents the baby from sliding out from underneath the strap.
