And there is nothing that is worthwhile thinking about more (and investing well in) than a hardworking, all-rounder pram.

Billed as the ultimate “single to double solution”, it’s perfect for any parents with one or two kids who need transporting.
With the ability to be transformed up to 20 different ways, you can take it through every stage of your child’s life, from newborn single-pram mode to carrying two (tandem-style) or even three kids thanks to the comfort wheeled board attachment.
This is why the new pram has been voted top parenting buy by TV presenter Renee Bargh.
Speaking to Best Picks, the 38-year-old mum-of-two said the $1,999 buy has been a “game-changer” for her young family.
“It’s surprisingly lightweight but still super sturdy — perfect for juggling two little ones,” she said.
“The configurations are the best, when Soleil was a newborn I loved that she could be up the top and easier to reach.
“The sibling seat makes life easier if I need to keep Tide contained and he loves riding on the scooter board. It has ample storage space and it folds down easily and looks beautiful too, which I’ll admit, I really appreciate the sleek design.”
The Bugaboo Kangaroo is uniquely engineered for ease, featuring the brand’s signature one-hand fold, unrivalled manoeuvrability, smooth ride on all-terrains and ultimate comfort, all while using bio-based materials to reduce the stroller’s C02 footprint.
With an eye on the future, all Bugaboo innovations, including this one, are consciously-crafted using eco-friendly materials and built to last, having to withstand more than 1,500 safety tests.
But it’s not just prams that make life easier as a mum.
Renee also explained that she has a few other “gentle hacks” that she swears by.
“Some days feel beautifully chaotic, and others… just chaotic,” she said.
“But we’re finding our rhythm, slowly. Honestly two kids some times feels like ten.
“My biggest hack is letting go of perfection — the laundry can wait, but cuddles can’t and I’m very aware of how fleeting this time is,” she said.
Renee batch cooks snacks ahead of time so there’s always plenty on hand, and makes sure there is a change of clothes in the car for everyone for those last-minute emergencies.
Finally, the mum-of-two said she keeps baskets or tubs in every room for quick and easy tidy-ups:
“It’s like a mini reset button because the mess can get so overwhelming,” she said.
“Online grocery shopping is my saviour, water play or a bath with lots of fun toys when kids are getting feral or need a reset.”
The launch of the Bugaboo Kangaroo in Australia in February comes off the back off a milestone year for the brand, celebrating 25 years of pioneering parenting products since 1999.
It’s available in four different colour ways: Midnight Black, Desert Taupe, Dark Cherry and the new Moon Grey.

Renee Bargh’s top three mum must-haves
1. The Kangaroo pram: “It is used more than anything we own, perfect for naps-on-the-go… it’s basically part of the family.”
2. A carrier or wrap: “It helps me feel close while still getting things done and I always need my hands free.
3. A really good water bottle: “I’m always reminding myself that taking care of me helps me take better care of them and tandem feeding means I’m always thirsty!”
