[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I will be the dissenter and say 1.5-2 hours is way too long-and I'm a distance runner who thinks nothing of running for 4-5 hours straight!

There is no where nanny can stop if she needs to feed the baby, change the baby's diaper, or even just take a breather!   I can't believe you want to put your NEWBORN and their caregiver in this position![/quote]

Nanny here and I do it everyday with infants for a solid two hours. It’s not too long for a baby at all.  And a 1.5 to 2 hour stroll is good for baby and nanny.  Fresh air, light and shadows, sounds and smells are all great for an infant’s brain development.  [/quote]

Infant, or newborns specifically?   OP said that they "had a baby in the midst of covid" which means the baby is about 6 weeks or less.[/quote]

Yes, newborns and infants specifically.  Once they’re toddlers, they shouldn’t be strapped in a stroller for even a quarter of that time.  They should be running around.  [/quote]
