Car seat for a newborn – what should you pay attention to?

When choosing a car seat, there are a few key things you need to keep in mind:
Newborns and infants have an underdeveloped musculoskeletal system, which is why they must be transported in rear-facing car seats. Always choose models that allow for rear-facing installation.
• Every product designed for transporting children in cars must have European safety certification, such as ECE R44/04 or ECE R129. This ensures the seat meets safety standards for infant travel.
• The car seat should include an internal harness, ideally a 5-point harness, to keep your baby properly positioned during the ride and to prevent them from sliding or falling out in the event of a collision. A regular car seat belt does not provide sufficient protection for an infant.
It’s also a good idea to choose a model that can be installed with the ISOFIX system. This additional safety feature anchors the car seat directly to the vehicle’s chassis, preventing it from shifting during an accident and ensuring your baby is securely protected at all times.
