What do parents do with a pushchair during nursery days?

My baby is starting nursery soon and has a few settling in sessions coming up. The nursery is near my place of work and 40 minutes away from where we live. I can’t drive, so will have to take the bus there with the pushchair. I asked today at her induction whether I can leave it inside, or if they have a storage place and the answer was no.

her settling in sessions are 4 hours each and then I will have to take her for a full day next week with the pushchair. What can I do with the pushchair whilst I wait? I don’t want to look like a weirdo pushing around an empty pushchair all day 😆 there is a small bike shed, which I’m thinking the only thing to do is get a bike lock and leave it there whilst I find something to do all day. What do people do in the same situation who don’t live near home and don’t own a car to leave it in?

I’ve never known a nursery to not have buggy parking! That is bizarre!
I used to commute on the bus to son’s nursery right by work and left the pushchair there.

get an umbrella fold one or compact( like the cosatto woosh) then you can fold it down and carry it like a bag if they really won’t let you leave it there.
