Visit this website particularly if you have a tiny already and you’re expecting another as they sell the BuggyPod, which attaches to your existing buggy so you can carry both without having to invest in a double buggy. They also have lots of other essential gear for twin and triplet travel including some well priced Marco double side by side and tandem buggies.
Although there’s a very good range of buggies and travel systems here (plus cots, bath time essentials, car seats, bouncers and bedding for singles) there’s also an excellent choice of tandem and side by side buggies for twins including those by MacLaren, Chicco, Cosatto, Jane and Outnabout and a wide range of prices from just over £100 to around £300. The information is not over detailed but clear and simple and they have some very good sale discounts.

This is a slightly calmer baby gear website than some, as it’s not trying to offer you absolutely everything (although there are plenty of products to choose from). As well as the normal buggies and travel gear there are in-car accessories such as bottle heaters and roller sun blinds, travel cots and infant carriers – all very well pictured and clearly described.
This is quite a basic website but one that offers lots of useful products including the HandySitt.

Other brands they offer are Mulberry Bush and Bushbaby fleeces, Grobag sleeping bags, Minimink faux fur hats and mitts and Skip Hop baby bags.
I really like what the creator of this website says and couldn’t put it better myself: ‘Once we arrived home again after a stressful week, having established that I'd packed too much and discovered that half the products and equipment I'd taken for Rory were either impractical, inconvenient or not required in the first place I decided to set about doing something about it before our next trip’, So she did, and on this website you’ll find not just lots of helpful advice and information but also a whole range of products to make your life easier as you go.

If you've just had a baby or you know someone who has it would be well worth your while taking a look at this website from a retailer specialising in baby bags. The kind of bag that holds all the paraphernalia you need if you go out, with multiple compartments to keep everything separate, that you can use as a shoulder bag if you want or attach to your high tech buggy. There are lots to choose from the Million Dollar Baby Bag (extremely expensive) to the excellent Skip Hop bag which comes in lots of colours.
Lula Sapphire offers a wide range of products and appears again below in the Organic baby products section, as most of its range is environmentally friendly. It’s here as well for its excellent collection of changing bags (many of which don’t look like changing bags at all) so if you want something really chic invest in the wonderful, modern StorkSak Gigi, which’ll hold everything for the baby plus your laptop too.
I have to confess that if I was going the baby route again (which I most certainly am not), this would probably be my first port of call as StorkSak create wonderful ‘baby’ bags which look like nothing of the sort – in black quality nylon with leather straps and excellent fittings, although if you’re not like me an addicted to black you can have your bag in rose, sky or modern print as well. Shapes are tote, classic shoulder shaped, smart weekend or modern slouch and they offer all the accessories you need too.

For a baby bag that's a cross between just that and a chic tote/handbag (and an investment at the same time) take a look here at a range of bags handmade in Italy which definitely have that designer feel.

This is a very large handbag, luggage and business case website where they also have some very good baby bags by Samsonite, Kipling, Oi Oi, Little Packrats and Pink Lining (by designer Charlotte Pearl).

They offer accessories such as extra changing mats, blankets and Kipling’s quilted ‘warm-up’ bags as well.
For the Hip-O-Boat, Super Sub Sophie, Bubbles for the Tub or Splashy the Penguin this is definitely the place as there are lots of fun bath time toys to choose from.
