As a loving parent, your
child's safety should be your first priority.
That is why choosing the correct seat for your child is essential.
You should always check the
weight of your child before choosing a seat. Ages are often quoted
alongside child seats, but these are always approximate values as all
child seats must be approved to carry children by their weight.
The table below will help
you to choose the correct seat for your child:

Note : Some seats
have a greater longevity and are approved for two, or sometimes, three
different groups.
These Groups are laid down
by the European Safety Standard - the standard that all child seats
throughout Europe must comply with. This safety standard governs
how seats are made and tested.
