Your baby's first car journey is a milestone moment, and having the right car seat makes all the difference. Baby car seats are designed specifically for newborns and young infants, offering the protection and support that tiny passengers need from their very first day. These rear-facing seats cradle your little one safely as you navigate life's adventures together.
Choosing Car Seats for Babies
The beauty of modern car seats for babies lies in their thoughtful design. Unlike seats for older children, these are created to support delicate newborn bodies, with special inserts that cushion their head and neck. Your baby sits in a reclined position in these rear-facing seats, providing the proper support they need during every journey.
One feature that parents absolutely love is the travel system compatibility. Many of our infant car seats click seamlessly onto pushchair frames, which means you can move your sleeping baby from car to pram without disturbing them. It's one of those practical touches that genuinely makes daily life smoother. You'll also appreciate the portability of these seats, designed to be lifted in and out of the car easily, with handles that let you bring your baby indoors or into a café without fuss.
Safety Features and Installation
Safety features are built into every aspect of these seats. We stock options with Isofix bases that lock securely into your car, providing stable installation every time. If you prefer more flexibility, several of our baby car seats work perfectly with seatbelt fitting too, making them ideal for families who share vehicles or use taxis regularly.
Practical details matter when you're caring for a newborn. Removable covers that pop straight into the washing machine are essential for dealing with spills and accidents. Adjustable sun canopies help shade your baby on bright days.
Finding the perfect baby car seat means thinking about your lifestyle. Consider how often you'll be moving the seat between cars, whether you need it to work with a specific pushchair, and your preferred installation method. Every family is different, and there's a seat out there that fits yours perfectly. Explore our collection and discover the infant car seat that gives you confidence on every journey.

Infant Carriers or Group 0 models, are designed to offer ultimate protection during the first months of a child's life. Travel can be risky because young children are more vulnerable due to different growth phases. When you select a car seat for babies from newborns to 15 months, you can know that a child is safe.
Increased liner support, headrest adjustability, temperature control padding and rear-facing positioning are all features that these car seats typically include. If you choose to use a multi stage car seat, safety can be affected and not offer the correct postural support and positioning when travelling
Infant carriers should always be rear-facing in the car. UK Law and R129 guidelines state that children must remain rear-facing until 15 months old and 76cm in height. Babies must be rear-facing in the car to ensure they have the very best protection. By being rear-facing, their head, neck, and spine are kept aligned, offering maximum protection.
Ideally, the car seat should also be in the middle of the back seat to avoid dangers such as deploying airbags or side-impact collisions. However, placing it anywhere in the back seat is acceptable if this is not possible.
It's important to clarify that a rear-facing car seat can be placed in the front passenger seat if the airbag can be turned off. However, if the airbag cannot be deactivated, it is illegal to use a rear-facing car seat in the front.
For forward-facing car seats, it's essential to consult the car manual, as it will advise whether the airbag needs to be left on or turned off.
Always refer to the car manual and car seat manufacturers' fitting lists for assurance.
This will depend on the product you have selected so always check out the manufacturers guidelines. However, generally speaking car seats should be fitted using either a seatbelt or Isofix base. Click this link to find out more details on how to fit a car seat correctly.
If you choose a car seat only intended for use from birth to 15 months, you can expect to pay anywhere from £60 to £350 (£500 with an Isofix base). Pricing differences will depend on features such as safety considerations, compatibility with travel systems, installation method and design. You can also choose from a selection of brand names, which will cause the cost to fluctuate.
Should you want to select a car seat to last for a longer period, we also offer models suitable from birth to 4 years and birth to 11 years. These products include the same safety features but allow more adjustability to accommodate a growing child.
Choosing a car seat can indeed be challenging, as factors such as weight and size of the seat can influence your decision. It's crucial to ensure that the car seat you choose offers optimal support for your child and is suitable for newborns.
Additionally, we sell only approved car seats that adhere to the European safety standards R44 or R129.
