Definition of stroller

/ˈstrəʊlə(r)//ˈstrəʊlər/

The word "stroller" has a fascinating history! It originated in the 17th century, specifically in the early 1600s. During this time, streets were often muddy and rough, making it difficult for mothers to walk with their infants. A "stroller" initially referred to a harness or a carrying frame worn by servants or footmen to carry the children of wealthy families. These servants would stroller the children around the city, hence the name. The word "stroller" eventually evolved to describe the device itself, rather than the person carrying it. By the 18th century, the term "stroller" became synonymous with the baby carriage or pram, which was designed to be pushed rather than carried. Today, we use the term "stroller" to describe a movable baby carrier designed to allow parents to take their little ones on walks while keeping them safe and comfortable.
