How to Choose the Best Car Seat newborn car seat insert

The best car seat for newborns is one that is compliant with federal safety standards, fits your vehicle, has convenient extras (like making it strollers) and is within your budget. Also, make sure that the car seat is easily clicked into and out of any vehicle, particularly when you frequently switch between taxis, rental cars or your grandparents' vehicles.

Safety

A quality car seat will have extra features that go above and beyond safety standards of the federal government. These include padded inserts on the head and shoulders as well as air-repellent fabric to keep them cool when driving in hot weather.

Easy installation and use of the seat is another important aspect of safety. In the ideal scenario, you'll be in a position to snap it in place with minimum effort and with clear indicators that it's secure in its place, level, and placed properly.

Find features that make it easier to accomplish this, such as built-in lock offs and belt guides that help you align the car seat with the vehicle's seat belt. Also, you should avoid purchasing used car seats, which might not have been tested for crash safety or have been involved in an accident, and could not be safe for your child. If you have to buy an used car seat ensure that it has an expiration and that the seller is not a private person who has no evidence of ownership.

It is also important to remember that you should only leave your baby in the car seat up to two hours a day, unless you are in a flat position. This will prevent strain on the spine of your child, and ensure that they get a chance to breath regularly.
