Virtual Car Seat Check

Get your car seat checked from the convenience of your smartphone, tablet, or computer! Skip the traffic and stay comfortable at home—or even in the hospital parking lot if your newborn just arrived! During your virtual appointment, a nationally certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST) will visually inspect your child’s car seat and guide you through the installation process in real time.

Your 45 minute session includes:

• How to install your child’s car seat correctly in your specific vehicle

• Proper harnessing and positioning of your child

• Important steps for bringing your baby safely home from the hospital

• Adjustments you’ll need to make as your child grows

• Common car seat mistakes and how to avoid them

• Next steps for your child’s car seat as they grow

By the end of your appointment, you’ll have the knowledge and confidence to install and use your child’s car seat correctly every time.

A few things to know:

• Each appointment is approximately 45 minutes and covers 1 car seat. An infant car seat with two bases counts as 1 car seat.

• Have more than 1 car seat? Please book an additional appointment for each additional seat.

• Virtual checks can be completed with one person, but we recommend having two people present whenever possible—one to hold the phone, tablet, or computer and one to install the car seat.

• You’ll need a device with a camera and a stable internet connection.

Expectant parents will receive a certificate of completion that can be presented to their hospital or birthing center.
