When you’re expecting your new arrival, be it your first child or your fifth, there are some key products you’ll be in need of to keep your little one safe while on the move.

From the drive back from the hospital, to visiting family and friends and exploring the world around them, two key items every parent needs are the car seat and a reliable pushchair.

Known for featuring a range of brilliant brands as well as its own ranges, John Lewis is trusted for quality products. Silver Cross is one such brand, creating innovative nursery products to make family life easier, and giving parents that all important peace of mind. So, from pushchairs to car seats, you can find the perfect choice for your newborn.

Here are our favourite picks from the Silver Cross range, available to purchase at John Lewis.

Reef pushchair

New from the Silver Cross range, Reef is the crossover SUV of the pushchair world – a multi-terrain travel system suitable for all adventures, without compromising on style.

The compact free-standing fold means it’s easy to pack into your car boot, and four configurations ensures it will last your baby from newborn to their toddler years.

Other features include a Genius™ harness with unique magnetic buckle and new rucksack-style strap adjustments.

Enhanced multi-terrain spring suspension and never-wear tyres guarantee you can tackle any terrain while your little one sleeps on in comfort.

Designed to make parents lives easier, the Reef is also environmentally conscious, created with sustainable fabrics sourced from plastic bottles.

Dream i-Size car seat

Rated the safest infant carrier by ADAC when used in combination with the Dream i-Size base, the i-Size car seat offers unrivalled protection from tiny newborn up to approx 15 months.

This rear facing car seat has four layers of side impact protection and can be combined with the ISOFIX i-Size base as well as Silver Cross prams and pushchairs to create a travel system.

Removable newborn inserts in co-ordinated fabrics with washable covers mean this chair grows with your child and keeps them safe and sound from day one.

First bed folding carrycot

Suitable from birth up to six months, the first bed folding carrycot is perfect for trips out and about, even if you’re staying overnight. The fully ventilated base and hood for maximum air-flow keeps baby at the perfect temperature, while the roomy design and super-soft, anti-bacterial bamboo lining lets your little one sleep comfortably.

A one hand release lets you switch between pushchair and the compatible carrycot stand, creating a Moses basket-style sleep solution – ideal for nap time or even bedtime. It also folds down into its base for easy transport.

Dune Pushchair

The one handed free-standing fold makes storage an issue of the past. Then with just the flick of a catch, the pushchair springs back into action within seconds.
