🧒🏽 One Kiddo at a Time!

While you may be shopping for more than one car seat, go through this tool with one child in mind. You can work through the tool as many times as you'd like, so simply start over for the next child.

🚫 No Skipping Allowed!

This tool and its order were intentionally designed, and every question matters. With SITS TIPS throughout, we will guide you every step of the way.

🌈 Before You Dive in, Remember, Here at Safe in the Seat:

We follow best practice guidelines – our tool is designed with this in mind.

We know that riding rear-facing is safest for our youngest passengers. A child should never forward-face before age two, and we encourage a goal of age four.

Boosters are for big kids and require maturity to ride safely. For most kids, this means they should not be riding in a booster until they are five or older.

🔎 Seek Specialized Help If:

  • Your child has a medical/physical disability.
  • Your vehicle was manufactured before 2002.

Contact us at hello@safeintheseat.com for further guidance.

Your child's size and minimum requirements matter!

Are you shopping for a convertible car seat for your newborn?

SITS TIP! While all car seats state a weight limit range, it doesn't always mean the car seat will fit your small baby safely. Not to worry—we know which ones will! This is why we typically recommend starting with an infant seat.

Just chiming in here for a quick SITS safety message!

You’re in the big kid stage of car seat safety now. Your child’s body was always in the proper position in a harness seat because they didn’t have a choice! In booster mode, it’s your child’s responsibility to keep their body in the proper position! It’s a big deal, and why we recommend maxing out the harness seat before moving to this stage. The vehicle seat belt must be properly positioned to protect your big kid in a crash. 

To ensure your kiddo is riding as safely as possible in their high back booster: 

✔️Child must sit upright with their bum all the way back.

✔️Guide the shoulder belt through the shoulder belt guide.

✔️Ensure the shoulder belt lies diagonally across the child's chest.

✔️Make sure the lap belt is flat and snug across their thighs.

✔️Double-check that the seat belt is routed properly (most commonly under the armrest)

✔️Watch out to prevent the shoulder belt from getting stuck in the guide.

✔️When the booster isn't in use, secure it to avoid it becoming a projectile, or use the lower anchor connectors if it has them.
