Wondering if your child has outgrown their car seat?
One of the most common questions we get is, "How do I know when it's time to move to the next seat?"
The answer isn't based on age alone.
While manufacturers provide age ranges as a guide, the most important factor is your child's size — particularly their torso length.
For many car seats, once the top of your child's shoulders reach the manufacturer's height marker or label line, they've reached the maximum height for that car seat and it's time to move to the next stage.
Every child grows differently, which is why two children of the same age may fit very differently in the same seat.
If you're not sure whether your child still fits safely in their current seat, pop in and we'll help you check.
