Out n About Nipper Switch - Revolutionary 2-in-1 CarryCot & Parent-Facing Seat
Introducing Out n About's groundbreaking innovation: the Nipper Switch, their first-ever 2-in-1 carrycot and parent-facing seat system. This ingenious design represents a significant leap forward in pushchair versatility, combining a lie-flat, overnight-sleep-approved carrycot with a fully functional parent-facing seat unit, all utilising one shared frame and canopy for ultimate convenience.
A Brand First from Out n About
Building on over 20 years of trusted innovation in all-terrain pushchair design, Out n About has created something truly special with the Nipper Switch. This revolutionary product addresses a common parenting challenge: maintaining that precious parent-facing connection whilst transitioning from newborn carrycot to toddler seat. Rather than purchasing separate components or losing the parent-facing option entirely, the Switch seamlessly transforms between configurations, keeping your baby close and connected from day one through to toddlerhood.
Carrycot Mode: Cosy Comfort from Day One
The Nipper Switch's carrycot mode provides your newborn with the perfect sanctuary for rest, naps, and peaceful sleep whilst you're out and about. Designed with both baby comfort and parental practicality in mind, this mode offers exceptional features that set it apart:
Overnight Sleep Approved - Unlike many carrycots restricted to daytime use only, the Nipper Switch carrycot meets rigorous safety standards for overnight sleeping. This provides invaluable flexibility whether you're visiting relatives, staying overnight away from home, or simply want your baby to continue their nap undisturbed after returning from a walk.
Luxuriously Padded Mattress - Your baby deserves the best, which is why the Switch features a generously padded mattress that provides optimal support for your newborn's developing body. The mattress cover is fully removable and machine washable, making it simple to maintain pristine hygiene standards even after inevitable spills and accidents.
Ventilated Peekaboo Panel - Thoughtfully positioned ventilation ensures excellent airflow, keeping your baby comfortable in all weather conditions. The peekaboo panel allows your little one to glimpse the world around them whilst remaining protected, and gives you easy visual access to check on your sleeping baby without disturbing them.
Extendable Canopy - Scottish weather can be unpredictable, and the Switch's extendable canopy provides adaptable protection from sun, wind, and light rain. Extend it fully for maximum coverage during bright summer days, or retract it when conditions are milder.
Handy Storage Pocket - Keep essential items within arm's reach with the integrated storage pocket, perfect for muslins, dummies, a small toy, or your phone. No more rummaging through your changing bag for frequently needed items.
Parent-Facing Seat Mode: Stay Connected as They Grow
When your baby develops head control and shows interest in a more upright position (typically around 4-6 months), the Nipper Switch transforms effortlessly into a comfortable parent-facing seat. This clever design maintains that vital eye contact and connection, supporting bonding whilst giving your curious little one a better vantage point to explore the world around them.
Adjustable Recline System - The seat offers multiple recline positions from fully lie-flat through to upright, accommodating naptime comfort and alert exploration in equal measure. This versatility means you can adjust the position based on your baby's mood, activity level, or sleep requirements during your outing.
Five-Point Padded Harness - Safety is paramount, and the Switch's five-point harness system keeps your baby secure whilst the padded straps ensure comfort against delicate skin. The harness adjusts easily to accommodate your growing baby, maintaining a snug, safe fit throughout the seat's usage period.
Supportive Footwell - Ergonomically designed to support growing legs and feet, the footwell provides proper positioning for comfortable seated travel. As your baby grows into toddlerhood, this supportive design continues to offer appropriate leg placement.
All-Weather Protection - The mesh ventilation panel works in harmony with the canopy to provide temperature regulation in all seasons. Whether you're navigating warm summer days or cooler Scottish weather, your baby remains comfortable with optimal airflow and protection.
Design & Compatibility: Smart, Seamless, and Built for Real Life
The Nipper Switch integrates beautifully into the existing Out n About Nipper ecosystem, combining intelligent engineering with the brand's renowned go-anywhere capability. This thoughtful design means you're investing in equipment that works harmoniously with your existing pushchair setup.
Wide Compatibility - The Switch is compatible with Nipper Single V2, V3, V4, V5, and V6 buggies, with adapters included for secure attachment. This extensive compatibility means whether you have an older Nipper model or the latest version, you can benefit from this innovative 2-in-1 system.

Shared Frame & Canopy Design - One of the Switch's cleverest features is its use of a single frame and canopy for both carrycot and seat configurations. This streamlined approach reduces bulk, simplifies storage, and makes the transition between modes remarkably straightforward. You're not juggling multiple components or struggling with complicated assemblies – simply switch the fabric configuration as needed.
Lightweight Construction - Designed for parents managing busy lives and potentially other children, the Switch features lightweight construction that makes attachment and removal simple even with tired arms or whilst holding a toddler. The secure click-in system provides confidence that your baby is safely attached whilst remaining user-friendly.
Full Basket Access - Unlike some carrycot systems that obstruct access to your pushchair's storage basket, the Switch maintains full accessibility. You can still utilise all available storage space for shopping, changing bags, and everything else you need whilst out and about with your family.

Why the Nipper Switch Represents Exceptional Value
For families investing in the Out n About Nipper system, the Switch offers outstanding versatility and longevity. Traditional carrycots typically provide 4-6 months of use before requiring replacement with a seat unit. The Switch extends this timeline significantly by converting into a parent-facing seat, effectively providing two products in one whilst maintaining the parent-facing connection many families value during their baby's first year.
This is particularly beneficial for parents who:
- Value maintaining eye contact and connection with their baby
- Want extended parent-facing options beyond the newborn stage
- Prefer streamlined equipment without multiple separate components
- Appreciate overnight sleep-approved products for flexibility
- Seek premium quality from a trusted British brand
