Product Information

Children change too much for one seat shell to adequately provide the protection they need at each stage.

If you usually don’t take car seats on holiday because of the hassle, then I would thoroughly recommend the BubbleBum as a travel car seat for toddlers. Some parents may find them appealing, as it means only having to choose and pay for one child car seat, which could last from birth or 12 months up to 12 years of age. If your baby is under 9kg then your only options are the Tilt or the Group 0+ seat because they can't yet go into a Group 1 seat.

Most experts recommends that your little one travels rearward-facing for at least 15 months, due to the strength of the muscles. Available in adorable Disney character prints, wild animals, and even Spider-Man, your little one will always be accompanied by their favourite characters. Offering the best in safety and comfort, Balance i-Size features naturally anti-bacterial bamboo fabric which are super-soft and breathable.R44 groups 0+ (birth to 13 kg), 1 (9 to 18 kg), or 2/3 (15 to 36 kg) are based on your child’s weight, not height and are suitable for children from birth up to 12 years old.

But because of the design, not all babies enjoy sitting in it – which takes us back to the ‘they’re safest, but you’re so distracted by screaming you’re about to hit another car’ problem. This has increased safety in the car, but it also means that baby car seats must be designed to meet the needs of all children – newborns and slightly older ones. Forward-facing or rear-facing, each has its advantages and disadvantages, so it's important to select the right seat for your child.You'd either need their infant carrier (which is probably the the most convenient type of seat) or check a group 1 (rear facing? Fixed in your car through the ISOFIX system, the seat rotates, so it can be turned to face the door, making it easy to seat your baby or toddler. A car seat is one of the first things parents think about when welcoming a new member into the family, and finding the perfect car seat for your little one can sometimes feel overwhelming.

Secure fastening and easy release ensure effortless mobility, which is essential for more frequent car journeys – even for shorter distances.You can get car seat bags which have rucksack type straps to transport these seats a bit more easily but they are a pain compared with booster seats and infant carriers. The only thing to be careful of with some of the cheaper 0/1/2 seats (like this from Asda) is that the rear facing function is only valid until 9kg/20lbs which is really little. Our I-Size car seats meet these requirements perfectly, as they suit newborns and slightly older children. Car seats approved to the newer R129 regulations that are also multi-group are rarer, although you may find some retailers define extended rear-facing car seats (that take your child from birth to four years) as multi-group.

If anyone knows of any great European transfer companies that are good at providing car seats please let me know in the comments.

This i-Size Car Seat has 4 recline positions which can be used in all height configurations and with 9 adjustable head rest positions, you can find the safest and most comfortable position for your child, at any age. Does it have a rear-facing option – safer but it will limit your choices, and may not fit in all cars.
