Which car seat is appropriate for which age?
From newborn to age 12 in four steps, with the sizes you’ll move up to.
Car seats are sold by age, but chosen by height. This classification makes it easy to navigate.
From birth
A newborn travels facing backward in a car seat suitable for children approximately 40 cm tall. Rear-facing travel remains mandatory until at least fifteen months of age, and it has been shown to be safer to continue for longer.
The Toddler Years
A child between 75 and 105 cm in height can ride in a forward-facing car seat, provided the seat allows it and the child is old enough. Seats that accommodate heights from 40 to 150 cm cover this entire stage in one go.
Starting at about 100 cm
At this height, Group 2/3 car seats come into play: a booster seat with a backrest, in which the seat belt secures the child instead of a separate harness. The backrest guides the seat belt over the shoulder.
Up to about 150 cm
Only when the seat belt fits properly across the shoulder and hips without a booster seat can the child move out of the car seat. This usually happens around 150 cm, not at a specific age.
