Parental care is an essential part of human nature. Parents, regardless of the level of wealth, always want to give the best to their children. Baby mobility products allow parents and caregivers ease of mobility while travelling or during household chores. These products give relaxing arms to mother's and helps them in gaining much needed rest post delivery. Equipments like carriers help them in getting back to normal routine, as modern Indian women's do not want child to be restricting their movements or work. Strollers and prams make life much easier and parents do not feel bogged down by the baby being attached to them 24*7. Child car seats are relatively a new phenomenon in India. Since a baby has no way of exercising self restraint, it’s at a greater risk of being hurtled around the car. Using a child car seat helps to overcome these risks and Indian parents have now started to understand this. On the other hand, baby walkers help babies to learn walking gradually. Baby carrycots are useful where strollers and prams are not appropriate like in crowded places.
