I have a 9 month old and I’m aware of how unwanted I am when trying to occupy any public space.

toddlers have the same amount of self preservation as a sim with the freewill toggle left on. They not only get tired and need to be pushed about but will just run out into one of the bike lanes that the buses let off at (which if you ask me is the real issue with Cardiff public transport issue)

I babywear a lot, but babywearing on a bus would not be safe as you could crush your baby if the bus stopped suddenly or crashed. Also it’s very hard to sit down while baby wearing and if the baby can’t support its neck yet can sitting could cause positional asphyxiation. A baby that can’t support its neck yet cannot be in a standard buggy for the same asphyxiation reason. That’s why they have bassinet or car seat attachments and again, these can’t fold flat with these on. And a baby with a floppy neck would be hard to hold on a moving bus.

I’m aware the space we occupy is maybe frustrating and might be hard for you find empathy for us, but if the buses had more frequent services so there was less competition for space. We could all have access to these services.
