All the options are awkward, trailer likely to be the best of the lot. You could put baby on a front seat and 2yo on a rear seat, but not that stable.

7m old is a bit young for the trailer, ime.

chariot bike trailers actually do special supports and hammock type things for young babies. they are not the cheapest trailer but we researched loads and thought they were the best
