When flying with a baby, you want to ditch the car seats and travel safely and comfortably. If you are a parent seeking to travel, here are things to look for at Kidmoto.

Competent Drivers

Kidmoto drivers are professional and have updated licenses. We provide a reliable child car service with safety-conscious and defensively minded drivers. Kidmoto trains drivers in car seat installation and the training conducted by technicians with federal government certification. Drivers must also undergo considerable background checks. These measures are to ensure the safety of your family.

Value of Car Seats

Kidmoto drives are responsible child car service operators who sincerely care about the protection of your children. We realize the importance of child car seats, and we see to it that Kidmoto drivers are trained to install them properly. Here are three standards to remember regarding car seats.

  • Babies must ride in seats that face the rear.
  • Toddlers must ride in car seats that face forward with harnesses.
  • School-age kids must ride in booster seats up to the time adult seat belts fit well. The height of the child is 4’9″ and weighs between 80 and 100 pounds.

The booster seat refers to a cushion-like booster that elevates youngsters sitting in motor vehicles so that the seat belt cleanly crosses the child’s collarbone and hipbone. A child below 40 pounds gets absolute protection in a seat with a five-point harness. Kidmoto drivers provide car seats for children that undergo crash testing by the USA National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s National Car Assessment Program (NCAP). It is the industry benchmark for the verification of child seat performance during serious road accidents.

Some convertible car seats accommodate rear-facing toddlers from five up to 50 pounds, forward-facing kids from 20 up to 65 pounds (with harness), and older children up to 110 pounds in a booster seat with the belt. Sedans can carry a single seat while minivans have two car seats, and SUVs carry three.

Types of Car Seats

Children’s car seats are built with specific guidelines.

All babies and toddlers ride in infant seats until two years old or reach the seat manufacturer’s maximum height or weight.

Toddlers and Preschoolers – Convertible and forward-facing with harness

Kids should have exceeded the height and weight limit prescribed by the seat manufacturer.

School-aged children – Booster seats

Kids should have exceeded the height and weight limit prescribed by the seat manufacturer.

Children whose weight or height is over the forward-facing limit must use the belt-positioning booster fixture.

Older children – Seatbelts

Kids below 13 years old must sit at the back.

Insurance Coverage

Finally, select a child car service that provides commercial insurance that will protect your infant or child while traveling. Use Kidmoto when flying with a baby.
