HRP Mamas Invites you to: Car Seat Safety For The Urban Parent: A Workshop with Alisa Baer, MD,
Taking your child in a car is one of the riskiest thing you'll do as a parent - and part of this risk comes from the fact that 95% of all car seats are not installed properly, with the average seat having 5 errors. The most common mistakes parents make with car seats are that the child is buckled too loosely in the car seat and the car seat is installed too loosely in the car. In this workshop, Pediatrician Dr. Alisa Baer, a nationally certified child passenger safety instructor known best as The Car Seat Lady, will teach parents how to buckle a child properly and securely in a car seat - and how to troubleshoot common issues like the straps getting twisted, the straps feeling uneven, or the newborn's head flopping down. We'll also discuss ways to take children of different ages safely and conveniently in taxis & ride shares. You'll learn about the recommendations for when to transition your child from one seat to the next and one direction to the next. The Car Seat Lady is offering $10 off a private installation lesson (West Village or House Call location) to parents attending this workshop. Discount expires 12/31/18.
