Our program offers three types of car seats:  rear-facing, forward-facing and booster seat.  Even though there are many different models to choose from, all car seats must meet the same U.S. federal safety standards.
 
Essential requirements when scheduling a car seat education appointment:  have approximately an hour available for education time per child, patient chart number, and a vehicle onsite for the car seat to be installed.
