As a Child Passenger Safety Technician I come into contact with people from all income levels, all types of cars and car seats. However, being in Delaware, I was surprised to receive a call from an expectant Mom in Mississippi this morning. She told me that she is unemployed and will soon be welcoming her baby. Parents are not allowed to leave the hospital with their newborn without an appropriate car seat. This woman asked my assistance as she cannot afford to purchase one.
This is a common situation. Child car seats can be very expensive. There are programs in many states that offer low-cost car seat assistance. The Department of Motor Vehicles runs this program in Delaware, but the best resource for low-cost car seats and other car seat related questions is to contact your local Safe Kids Coalition. http://www.safekids.org/in-your-area/coalitions/ . This link is a great resource for all types of child safety information. Just select your state to find a coalition or an inspection station near you. It will even tell you if there is a Safe Kids Community Event being held in your area.
While we don’t advise buying or using a 2nd hand seat unless you are sure you have all the parts, the instruction manual and know the car seat’s history, a used car seat is better than no car seat at all.
Let's keep all our kids safe!
