Your child can remain rear facing until they are 30 months old (or approximately 2-3 years old), which is safer for your child.
3 Questions to Find a Car Seat
Do I need a car seat or a capsule?
Car capsules are used from newborn until around 12 months. Most car seats can be used from newborn to age 4. Capsules have the advantage of being able to be taken in and out of the car without disturbing your baby (who often fall asleep on rides), but you’ll get more mileage out of a car seat. If and when you leave the house, it’s most often in a car, and you’ll be in and out a lot in your baby’s first year, the capsule might be the right choice for you. If you’re more likely to be on foot or public transport through the week and only use the car for bigger trips, a car seat may be all you need.
How will it work with your car?
Your car type and size is the main consideration in choosing a car seat. A bigger car seat may restrict the amount of legroom you get in the front seat, or how many car seats will fit across the back seat (if you’re accommodating multiple kids) and some designs are easier to use depending if your car is higher or lower. There is also the consideration of whether you’ll install via ISOFix or the seatbelt.
How will it work with your lifestyle?
If you are choosing a capsule, check it can be connected to your pram. You also want to make sure it’s comfortable for you to carry (some are lighter than others) and for both car seats and capsules, ensure you find the mechanisms for clicking your baby in, and adjusting the headrest and shoulder heights, easy to do.
