CAR SEAT SERVICES at Serenity Birth Studio:
Car Seat & Stroller Sales
Infant and convertible seat options are available from Clek and Chicco, as well as compatible Bumbleride strollers. Visit in-person to learn what type of car seat is best for your child and vehicle, and try seats in your vehicle before purchasing. With the purchase of any car seat, you will receive a FREE "Installation Check & Education Session". During this appointment, you will learn everything there is to know about using and installing your new car seat properly!
Car Seat Education & Installation Session (all ages & types of car seats)
Together we will inspect your car seat installation and fix any errors OR I will guide you step-by-step to install the seat so that you are confident in doing it yourself. We'll also make sure your child is properly fitted, talk about all the functions and features of your car seat and review a list of safety topics and best practice recommendations. *For a pre-natal check appointment, I'll use a newborn-sized doll to demonstrate proper harnessing and you'll book a follow-up appointment at no extra charge for a fit check.
To prepare for the appointment, please read the car seat manual in full and attempt the installation to the best of your ability. This will help facilitate your appointment and enhance your learning experience! ***If you have multiple car seats/vehicles to check, please book the latest timeslot available on any given day OR message me to set up a private appointment at my location.

APPOINTMENT DURATION: 1 hour for one car seat/vehicle OR up to 1.5 hours for 2nd base or 2nd car seat in another vehicle)
