NHTSA Certified Mobile Child Safety Seat Installation/Education Service
Pro Car Seat Safety is a NHTSA.gov (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) certified child passenger safety car seat inspection/education station. Call to talk with a live certified child passenger safety technician, available 24/7. Pro Car Seat Safety is a service of Pro Consumer Safety, operated throughout southern California and anywhere nationwide with the National Telehealth Car Seat Call Center. "When parents, caregivers, and drivers are transporting child passengers they must understand the critical importance of how to restrain their child passenger properly. This includes knowing the appropriate car seat or booster seat, how to install and test the seat, and restrain the child passenger properly in the car seat, booster seat, or seat belt" Dr. J. DeCarli, Injury & Neuroepidemiologist/Pro Consumer Safety-Public Health Behavior Solutions, Co-lead Occupant Protection, State of California, Strategic Highway Safety Plan/Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician/Master Certified Health Education Specialist. We assist parents and caregivers (including military families) at their homes, workplaces, hospitals, hotels, rental car companies, etc., and show you how to install your child's car seat and make sure you understand how to test, reinstall, and restrain your child properly. We also provide an equally as effective National Telehealth car seat service, to teach you how to install, test, and use your car seat properly. Virtual telehealth services are available throughout the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii, and the U.S. Territories of Guam, American Samoa, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, and Puerto Rico. We specialize in assisting expectant parents as well as those with newborns with their car seats. To improve our ability to effectively teach you, we use a Behavioral Skills Training (BST), evidenced-based, educational approach, that helps you learn and remember more easily. This approach was validated and shown to be effective, based on a quasi-experimental longitudinal study of over 2,448 new parents individually, as part of the Occupant Protection section of the (2015-2020) California Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP). Current efforts to expand this approach are being studied in the 2020-2024 SHSP. We serve the entire United States, and Canada, including hotels, car rental companies, and airports during travel. We can usually install it within hours of your call, but appointments are recommended. We educate you so you are empowered to fully understand your car seat and to properly fasten your child in their seat. Keep your baby riding safely from the start! If you are shopping for a car seat, call us for advice before you buy. Evidence-based research is supported by Public Health Behavior Solutions. For questions & to schedule call 323-491-6197. *Please note that any organizational logo on this website is those from organizations where we incorporate evidence-based research into our prevention programs.

"The most expensive car seat installed in the safest car is only as safe as it is correctly installed and properly used."
While most parents and caregivers feel confident that they have correctly installed their child's car seat more than half are found to have been installed and used incorrectly (NHTSA, 2020). When installed and used properly, child safety seats can reduce the risk of death by 71% (Safe Kids Worldwide, 2023).
