Various methods of baby transport have been used across different cultures and periods and for different ages of child. Methods can be divided between wheeled devices including carrycots (North American English baby carriages) and pushchairs (North American English strollers); also into slings and backpacks, baskets, infant car seats and bicycle carriers. The larger and heavier perambulators, or prams which had became popular during the Victorian era were replaced by lighter and more flexible designs during the later half of the 1900s.

Famous quotes containing the words baby and/or transport:
“It is a pleasant thing to reflect upon, and furnishes a complete answer to those who contend for the gradual degeneration of the human species, that every baby born into the world is a finer one than the last.”
—Charles Dickens (1812–1870)
“One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
