Special Needs Stroller

Special needs strollers are designed to provide crucial support and comfort for individuals who require specialised stability and positioning beyond what a standard stroller can accommodate. Providing upper-body support and full body positioning, special needs strollers are lightweight, durable and suitable for travel.

Offering features like adjustable seating (with some models having tilt-in-space) enhanced support and larger weight capacity, special needs strollers are designed to accommodate individuals with cerebral palsy, autism and other postural support needs.

Lightweight & Durable

Their lightweight makes them easy to manoeuvre and transport, however they are durable and strong enough to withstand daily use on varying terrains and surface environments. Special needs strollers’ durability means they provide reliable support and comfort for extended periods of use.

Suitable for Travel

With their lightweight design (and many models offering compact folding mechanisms) special needs strollers are extremely convenient for travel. Both traveling with (packing) and using on short trips and longer journeys.

Upper Body Support

Integrated support like adjustable lateral supports, headrest and harness offer extended support to the upper body. Helping to maintain proper posture, prevent slouching and provide stability for those with limited trunk control. This support is crucial for comfort, breathing and overall well-being.

Full Body Positioning

Special needs strollers will often have customisable positioning features like adjustable seats, recline functions, leg rest and foot supports. This allows for optimised positioning of the user and positional change for a range of activities. Ensuring better posture alignment and pressure distribution to help prevent discomfort and potential pressure injury.

Grows with the Individual

Traditional strollers and prams are not designed to grow with the individual. Special needs strollers are designed to offer a longer period of use with their in-built growth, allowing the stroller to be used as the initial mobility device before the use of a wheelchair.  

Special Needs Strollers are an important mobility aid for individuals whose needs exceed the capabilities of a conventional stroller. These strollers provide comprehensive upper-body and full-body support, all while being relatively lightweight, durable and travel-friendly.
