- Correct fitting of all car seats and boosters is of paramount importance in making them the most effective in the event of an accident. Not all car seats fit all cars and it is important to check for fitting suitability on all cars you intend to fit the seat to, as well as re-checking if you change your car.
- Always read the instruction booklet which comes with your car seat to achieve a safe and correct fitting, retaining the guide for future reference. We recommend fitting your car seat in advance of first using it.
- We recommend that babies shouldn't be left in car seats (infant carriers) for prolonged periods.
- Please make sure that you check the car seat you choose is suitable for your car before ordering. This can be done in store with a Partner or on the car seat manufacturer's website.
- Some of our shops offer a car seat fit test, where a Nursery advisor will test the display model in your car to check that it will fit properly. Please contact your local shop to see if this service is available. Alternatively, please contact the car seat manufacturer who will be able to advise whether their model will be suitable for your car.

- Height-based seats are known as ‘i-Size’ seats - These seats adhere to the safety regulation R129. They must be rear-facing until your child is over 15 months old. Your child can use a forward-facing child car seat when they’re over 15 months old. You must check the seat to make sure it’s suitable for the height of your child.
- Weight-based seats - These seats adhere to the safety regulation ECE R44. The seat your child can use (and the way they must be restrained in it) depends on their weight.
Easy to install and complete with colour coded guides, the Fortifi car seat by Joie Baby transports your little one safely and securely to make family outings stress free.
The clever reclining booster seat features 4 recline positions providing first class comfort during quick outings and long road trips alike. From snug support to deep recline, it's been thoughtfully designed to keep growing kids extra cosy when they sit up to take in the views or lean back to snooze as they cruise.
The seat grows comfortable with your child adjusting to make room for new growth thanks to the AutoAdjust side wings and Grow Together headrest. Once your big kid has outgrown the harness, simple stash the straps comfortably away in sleek hidden compartments when your growing child is ready to buckle up with the seat belt.
