Hiring a capsule or car seat allows parents and caregivers to loan a model for a short period of time. Currently, this service is unavailable in Baby Bunting stores. However, we do have a wide range of capsules and car seats for purchase and offer a car seat fitting and installation service with an accredited installer to help you find a suitable model for your car and lifestyle.
It's a rear-facing seat suitable for use until your baby is approx. 12 months old. It consists of two parts: a base that stays professionally installed in your vehicle and a capsule carrier that clicks in and out of the base.
It can be used in a ‘travel system,’ allowing you to click the capsule onto a compatible pram (sometimes with adaptors) for on-the-go transitions.
This seat stays in your vehicle and 'converts' from rear to forward-facing as your child grows.
It's rear-facing with an inbuilt harness until approx. 12 months (or extended up to 30 months in some cases) and then professionally turned around to forward-facing, still using the harness, until your child is around 4 years old or up to 8 years, depending on the model.
A forward-facing seat where you use the inbuilt harness from 12 months old.
The seat then ‘converts’ to a booster from approx. 4 years of age and the harness can be removed and replaced with an adult seat belt to buckle your child in (provided they meet shoulder height requirements).
A forward-facing seat with an inbuilt harness designed to accommodate your child from 12 months all the way up to 8 years of age.
The harness distributes evenly across your child’s body and can be convenient if you have another seat in the back, as there's no need to reach over or between seats to buckle an adult seat belt.
A type of seat designed to ‘boost’ your child up to allow an adult seat belt to fit across their body correctly. Use this seat from approx. 4 years of age until the legal minimum age of 7 and, until they are over 145cm tall.
Generally, booster seats are easy to move between vehicles if required.
