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:
“Unless your baby becomes uncomfortable and tries to push away, don’t worry that you’re cuddling too much. That way, when she reaches adolescence and goes through a normal period of being terribly embarrassed even to be seen with you in public, you’ll have some memories to tide you over until she comes around again.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“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)
