A foldable baby stroller having left and right side front wheel supports with a front wheel mounted to a forward end, and a laterally extending rear axle with a rear wheel mounted at each end. Further included are left and right side rear wheel supports, each having a lower end attached to the axle and an upper end portion with an upper end; and left and right side handle supports, each having forward and rearward ends with a handle spanning between. Also included are left and right side folding assemblies, each having a pair of mounting plates and a guide pivotally attached therebetween. The rearward end of one of the front wheel supports is fixedly attached between each plate pair. The forward end of one of the handle supports is pivotally attached between the plates and rotatable relative to the front wheel support between unfolded and folded positions. The upper end portion of one of the rear wheel supports is positioned between the plates and pivotally attached to the forward end of the handle support for application of a drive force thereto. The guide has an aperture with the upper end portion of the rear wheel support slidably disposed therein. The guide and guide aperture are configured to rotate the rear wheel support with rotation of the handle support in response to the drive force applied to the rear wheel support during the rotational movements of the handle support, and to slide the upper end portion of the rear wheel support in the guide aperture with rotation of the handle support in response to the drive force applied thereto during a second rotational movement of the handle support. The rotation and sliding movement of the rear wheel support moving the rear wheel support between an unfolded and folded positions. Alternative style guides can also be used.
