Let's talk about the importance of using the Reducer and the Strap Kit on your baby's car seat.
Most group 0 car seats, no matter how small, are still too big for a newborn and the reducer allows the perfect fit for your baby, especially the head. Its main function is to ensure the baby's good posture , safety and comfort .
In this case, if you have bought or are going to buy a new chair, there is no problem because all certified chairs come with a Reducer and Handle Kit included. But be aware that you need to know how to use it correctly. Your baby's head must be well fitted into the reducer and the straps well back, with the padded part under the shoulders, protecting the neck. Once you fasten the belt, no more than your hand can go through it. I see a lot of parents leaving their belts loose for fear of squeezing their babies.
However, the problem is when the chairs are borrowed, used from another child. Often these two accessories disappear. It's not enough to have a chair, these two accessories are essential for your baby's safety. Make sure the chair has these accessories.
If you don't have one, we offer some models in our online store.
It is important to never take things easy when it comes to safety issues!
