CAR SEAT INSTALLATION EDUCATION

 

The GWCPC is happy to offer car seat installation education services! ​

​

This program offers education to help keep children safe while travelling on B.C. roads. 

​

• Our volunteers are certified by BCAA

• There is a sliding scale of a $25.00 donation

• Contact the GWCPC to schedule an appointment 

​

The appointment takes approximately one hour and our certified volunteers will go over the following:​

• A review of your car owner's manual for child car seat recommendations

• Viewing of the BCAA 'Installing an infant (child) car seat and Securing an infant (child) car seat' videos 

• A review of your car seat manual

• Best location for car seat

• Position of car seat handle

• Correct belt path

• Tightness and angle of seat

• Chest clip level

• Quick release for car seat and base

• Harness level and tightness 

• Tether location

*Please note this is an education service, not an installation service and that there will be "hands on" learning, so please make childcare arrangements for this appointment
