Last week for National Seat Check Saturday, in partnership with Lou Bachrodt Chevrolet, General Motors, Broward Sheriff's Office, Florida Department of Transportation, Broward Healthy Start Coalition, Joe DiMaggio Children's Hospital, Pompano Beach Fire Rescue, Safe Kids Worldwide, and State Farm, we hosted a car seat check event in Pompano Beach to help parents/caregivers learn how to install and use their car seat correctly.

Thank you to our amazing partners for helping to make the event such a success!

Properly used car seats can reduce death by 71%, however, 2/3 of seats are used or installed incorrectly. The Safe Kids Broward Coalition offers car seat check appointments year round – check https://www.safekids.org/coalition/safe-kids-broward-county for a list of inspection locations.

Safe Kids Worldwide created an amazing resource for grandparents designed to support grandparents who play an essential role in raising the next generation.

“Grandparents bring deep love, wisdom, and experience to their families, and many are increasingly stepping in as caregivers. This guide recognizes their vital contributions and equips them with encouragement, up-to-date safety information, and actionable tips to help keep children safe”
