What’s The Safest Car Seat? Ft. The Car Seat Lady

Today’s episode is all about finding the right car seat for your
baby, so Brittany and Aleen are joined by none other than “The Car
Seat Lady” herself, pediatrician and nationally certified child
passenger safety instructor Dr. Alisa Baer. They start with a
conversation about what qualifies a car seat as being safe, and how
to go about choosing the right type for your baby. At 15:00 Dr.
Baer explains the different anchoring and tethering methods
available, and how that plays into your decision on which seat to
buy. At 25:30 they talk about the difference between rear-facing
and forward-facing seats, including when you should transition your
child to a convertible seat. Plus, they discuss some of the top
brands and how effective they are compared to their competitors.
Finally, at 33:00 they close the show with some tips for keeping
your children safe in the car (and why that includes buckling
yourself safely as well). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
