Good Information about Convertible Baby Car Seats and Baby Travel Strollers

All Infant Car seats come with a handle and nearly all have a base that secures  to your vehicle with LATCH connections. LATCH stands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children which includes belts that hook the base to metal anchors in the car. You can strap most infant seats into a car without a base, using the vehicle safety belts and some people continue to do so. Infant car seats allow you to move Your Baby from car to house or vice versa without waking him up – a plus for both of you. The down side is your baby may outgrow quickly and become too heavy for you to use as a carrier when he is around the age of 6 to 9 months. Infant car seats are still the safest way to transport the youngest of babies. It‘s more secure and compact for infants.

A baby travel stroller offers one-stop shopping. It consists of an infant car seat and a separate stroller all in one. You create a carriage by snapping an infant car set into a stroller. Once your baby can sit up, she can ride in the stroller seat. Many car-seat manufacturers offer these combination strollers/infant car seats. Also many stand alone strollers are now designed to accommodate infant car seats from various manufacturers.
The baby strollers travel system allows you to move a sleeping baby in the infant car seat from car to stroller and vice versa.

With convertible baby car seats, your child faces rear as a infant then toward the front of the vehicle as a toddler generally up to 40 pounds. The convertible baby car seats can be a money saver, taking your child from infancy to kindergarten depending on his or her weight. We still advise always starting with an Infant Car seat first for safety and then switching to the convertible baby car seats when your baby outgrows the infant one.

Toddler or booster seats are front facing with internal harnesses. These seats are either LATCH attached or can be secured using the vehicle belts and tethers. Depending on the type of convertible baby car seat you choose it may include the booster seat also.

Make sure the seat is compatible with your car. Regardless of fabric style remember that
Babies tend to be messy so washable fabric is a plus. Pay close attention to the height and weight limits for the seat your buy. Even with a Seat Belt, all children under the age of 13 should ride in the back seat.

Consult the instructions that come with the seat  before installing. Check your vehicle’s owner’s manual for information on your car’s LATCH belts. Remember the center rear seat is the safest spot. If your car does not have a shoulder belt in the center use the seat next to a door. Pull all slack out of the car’s LATCH strap. See the manufacture’s instructions for details.   

Check the seat often. Try shifting the car seat from side to side and back to front. It shouldn’t move more than an inch in either direction. Every model of car seat sold in the US must meet federal safety standards.
