Car seat guide
baby car seat
Our range of newborn car seats includes our lie-flat infant carrier (Glide Plus 360), and multi-stage car seats (Approach Plus 360 & Motion 2 All Size 360) which will grow with your child.
Toddler Car Seat
We recommend keeping your little one rear facing for as long as possible, but once your child reaches 15 months in age, you can choose to keep them in an extended rear facing car seat (Approach Plus 360.
Child Car Seat
When your child outgrows their 5 point car seat harness at approximately 4 years old (around 18.5kg in weight for Motion 2 All Size 360, or 21kg in Balance i-Size), the next stage is a high back booster.
Booster Car Seat
As your child grows taller and more independent, booster seats help position the vehicle seatbelt correctly for maximum safety.
Choosing the Right Car Seat
Every child grows at their own pace, and every stage of development needs the right kind of protection.
Safe & Secure Fit
Ensure your child is properly harnessed, with straps level at the right shoulder height for their stage.
Proper Harnessing & Comfort
Avoid bulky clothing under the harness, as it can compress in a crash and compromise safety.
Everyday Car Safety Tips
Choose soft, safe toys for travel — avoid hard objects that could cause injury during sudden stops.
Tips for Safe Travel
- Take regular breaks on long journeys to allow your child to stretch and reset.
- Keep the car interior comfortable — avoid letting your child stay in the seat for more than two hours at a time.
Always read the instruction manual thoroughly before installation or use.
