Babies will go to sleep when out & about in a pram, however, once at home it is important to place baby in their regular safe sleep environment.

Product Safety Aust has the following information.
Avoid sleeping children in prams or strollers. Never have an unharnessed child asleep in a pram or stroller as they can move about and may be at risk of falling or entrapment. If they are asleep, maintain regular supervision.
