Best stroller for older/ bigger child?

bethng · Apr 22, 2014

I do respite care for an almost 9 year developmentally delayed little girl. She is about 50 pounds...maybe. She has her own special needs stroller but even when taken apart, it won't fit in my Camry. I have been using a BJCM....she fits but she is close to being too tall for it. Are there any other strollers out there that accommodate taller/ older children? I was looking at a quinny....not sure what the model is though and it's hard to tell from online pics if it would work for her. Any suggestions?

I got the City Elite because it was taller and has a higher weight limit. I don't know how much use you would get out of it long term, but I love the thing.

I second the Baby Jogger city elite love it as well.

I don't know if this is available anymore [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Aprica-Cadence-Stroller-Jet-Black/dp/B003BGCUIU/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top"]Amazon.com: Aprica Cadence Stroller, Jet Set Black: Baby[/ame]

But it's what my SIL has had for the last 3-4 years for my DNi. She turns 9 next month and still fits fine in it. She is small for her age though along with developmental delays (but still taller than my 6yo).

Baby Jogger City Elite and even the Mini have high weight and height, not to mention they are incredibly easy to manage, store (one fold close), and maintain.

I fourth (fifth?) the Baby Jogger City Elite. It handled like a dream when my 4.5 year old 49" 50 pound DD broke her foot and needed a "ride". We don't use it anymore but I can't bear to part with it- just in case!!
