A foldable infant stroller which may be released and folded to a closed position or unfolded to an open position by one hand. The design and construction of the stroller is such that simply pushing or pulling on the handle portion of the stroller against the front wheels of the stroller moves the stroller from a folded or unfolded position. A latch mechanism may be activated by means of depressing a knob located in close proximity to the handle bar portion of the stroller, allowing the knob to be depressed simultaneously with pulling or pushing on the handle bar portion to fold or unfold the stroller. A hook mechanism, actuated by the knob on the handle bar portion of the stroller will engage either of a pair of catches to hold the stroller in either the folded or unfolded position.
