Not everyone needs or wants to use a capsule but we think they make life that little bit easier - especially if it's not your first child. Being able to easily transport your little one from home, to the car, to the shops or school + back again without waking or disturbing them is a win in our eyes! 

Capsules are also great for ease of getting your little one in and out of the car as you can safely buckle them in from the comfort of your house before you leave, then simply click the capsule in to the base in the car. The other great thing about a capsule? They're compatible with most leading brand strollers and can easily click on and off your stroller for life on-the-go!

We stock three great capsules that are all compatible with the strollers that we stock. 

The Maxi Cosi Mico Luxe Capsule is a great base capsule. Priced at $399 including the base, this is a great price point for a capsule that does everything you need it to. 

- Comes with a base 
- Plush inserts for newborns 
- Lightweight & easy to carry 
- Compatible with all leading strollers 

Looking for something a little more luxurious? Consider the Nuna Pipa Rx capsule with RELX base. This is our lightest capsule and comes with a few added extras including the higher weight range, dream drape for added sun protection and less sleep disturbance when out and about. It also has a 4 position on-the-go recline on the base when installed in the car. 

Our newest capsule to the store is the Maxi Cosi Pebble 360 capsule with Slide Tech. When purchased with the base, this capsule can rotate 360 degrees and easily slide out towards you in the car for easy in & out of your little one. This base is then compatible with the Maxi Cosi Pearl 360 carseat so you get more bang for your buck in the long run. 

Some more key features of the Maxi Cosi Pebble 360 carseat? 
- Comes with newborn inserts 
- Rotates 360 degrees when installed with the base sold separately 
- G-Cell side impact protection 
- 3 position recline including lie-flat which can be used in the car 

The next stage after a capsule, or instead of a capsule if you would like to use a carseat straight from birth, is a rear facing carseat. It is best practice to rear face until at least 2 years, but we advocate to rear facing until age 3/4 or even longer if able. Our range of carseats all rear face for an extended period of time and will give you options when it comes to turning your child forward facing. 

We have three carseats that will rear face until approximately age 3/4 [possibly longer] and last your child until they can move in to a harnessed booster [approx. age 5/6]. 

The Britax Poplar or Poplar S is a great place to start when it comes to rear facing carseats. It is easy to install with either Isofix or Clicktight seatbelt install. The key difference between the two is that the Poplar S is suited for younger children with newborn inserts and a stability bar for safer rear facing installation. 

Key features of the Britax Poplar S

- Stability bar for safer rear facing 
- Plush removable newborn inserts 
- Narrow width and depth for compact cars & fitting 3 across in most* vehicles 
- Safe & easy install with clicktight or isofix installation 
- Steel reinforced frame 
- Extended Rear facing to 22.5kg 
- Forward facing to 29.4kg approx
- Poplar has the same features minus the stability bar and newborn inserts 

The next seat in our range is the Baby Jogger City Turn carseat. This seat is not only great for extended rear facing up to 22.7kg, but also rotates 180 degrees to make it easier to get your little one in and out of the car when installed rear facing. This is a wider seat than the Britax Poplar so is more suited for vehicles that don't require a seat in the middle of the vehicle. 

Key features of the Baby Jogger City Turn 

- Rotates 180 degrees in rear facing mode 
- Rear facing to 22.7kg 
- Forward facing to 29.4kg & 124cm
- Easy isofix or seat belt installation 
- Steel reinforced frame

We stock two true 'one & done' carseats that last from newborn until approximately age 8-10. 

These seats convert from a rear facing carseat for a newborn & toddler to a forward facing harnessed carseat. 

First up is the Britax One4Life Convertible Carseat. This carseat is not only a true long-lasting carseat, but it is incredibly easy to install. With either Isofix install [up to 18kg] or Britax's easy Clicktight installation, it's not just easy to install but easy to move from car to car. This is a wider carseat than our other 0-8 seat, so it won't fit 3 across in a vehicle, or with another carseat in the middle seat. 

Key Features of the Britax One4Life Carseat

- True one & done carseat 
- Easy install with Clicktight or Isofix
- Rear facing up to 22.7kg 
- Forward facing up to 54kg 

Our next one & done carseat is the Infasecure Acheive Premium. This carseat will last you from birth until approximately 8 years of age. Infasecure seats are based off height, not weight when it comes to rear & forward facing limits. The height is measured from bottom to shoulder in a seated position, with easy markers on the seat to know when to turn your little one forward facing. These limits have been designed to keep up to a 3 year old rear facing depending on their height. This seat does require tethering in both rear and forward facing positions. 

Key Features of the Infasecure Achieve Premium
- Narrow & lightweight carseat for it's size - great for fitting 3 seats across the back seat
- Great rear facing limits for extended rear facing 
- Will last until your child no longer needs a harnessed carseat 
- Easy seat belt install, comes with locking clip for secure installation
