FAQs
Which of your strollers can I use safely with a newborn? Our coast, chit chat plus and autofold strollers all have a full flat recline angle that is suitable for a newborn. Larktale strollers with a full flat recline also feature a built-in newborn foot barrier which safely encloses the foot well area of the stroller to help prevent babies from kicking and sliding when reclined. Our caravan stroller/wagon, coast and autofold strollers offer car seat adapter accessories that are sold separately, check the car seat adapter listing to determine compatible car seat brands with each adapter.
What is the weight capacity of your strollers? All Larktale strollers are safety tested to a weight capacity of 55 lbs in the USA. The caravan stroller/wagon has a 50 lb per seat weight capacity.
Which infant car seats are compatible with your adapters? We offer several car seat adapter models that are compatible with many popular car seat models. Our Britax adapter works with the Britax B Safe, B Safe Ultra, B Safe 35/Elite, Romer, Unity Safe and Sound, and the Safe n Sound Unity Isofix/NEOS. Our Chicco Adapter works with the Chicco KeyFit and KeyFit 30. Our Multi-Model Adapter works with the Maxi Cosi Micro AP, Maxi Cosi Pebble, Maxi Cosi Cabrio Fit, Maxi Cosi Citi, Clek Liingo and the Nuna Pipa infant car seats
Can the Carry Cot be used for overnight sleeping? Our carry cot is perfect for all-day excursions, however it should not be used for overnight sleeping
How old should my baby be before they can sit in the upright seat of their stroller? Your baby should be able to sit up and hold their head up on their own before they can be safety seated in the non-flat position of their stroller seat – generally this at about 6 months old. Until this milestone, your baby should stay in the full-flat position, a Larktale Carry Cot, or in their car seat using one of our car seat adapters. The chit chat stroller and caravan stroller/wagon do have a recline, but it is not suitable for a newborn, these seats should only be used at 6 months and up.
I want to buy online, how do I know if my baby will fit in the seat of the stroller? The best way to determine fit is to measure the head height of your child. This is the measurement from the top of their head to the tip of their tailbone. Your child’s head height should be less than the following measurements to fit comfortably in the stroller: Chit Chat/Chit Chat Plus: 22 inches, Coast: 22 inches, Autofold: 25.5 inches, Caravan: 30 inches
How do I clean my stroller seat? Our stroller seats can be wiped clean using a damp cloth or baby wipe. For larger spills, the seat can be detached from the frame of the stroller and washed in cold water on the delicate cycle of your washing machine. The fabric should be attached to the stroller to dry. To prevent shrinkage, do not place the stroller fabric in the dryer or air-dry off the stroller frame.
Will your strollers fit in the overhead bin on an airplane? Our strollers cannot be taken onto the airplane, however they can be gate checked. You can even add one of our travel bags to help protect your stroller. And to make things even easier, our travel bags offer the option to leave the wheels exposed so you can roll your folded stroller along like luggage while traveling.

Will my stroller fold with Larktale accessories attached? Our strollers will fold with Britax and Maxi Cosi car seat adapters, belly bars, child trays, cup holders and foot muffs attached.
