  • What can I expect when booking a fitting?
    We only take online bookings, in advance. You should receive an email from our booking platform (Simply Book) confirming details such appointment time, your address, cost etc. If you haven't received a confirmation email please check your SPAM folder first and then give us a call. We will endeavour to arrive within 10 minutes either side (half an hour window) of the listed appointment time. If we expect to be earlier or later we will call you. Reciprocal courtesy is requested as well, if you're going to be a few minutes or plans change, please call us right away. Up on arrival, we will confirm the work you'd like us to complete, fit the restraint and demonstrate how to correctly use and adjust it until you're comfortable. We will also issue a certificate from the RMS within 48 hours of the fitting to show that the restraint has been correctly fitted. Please don't ask us to rotate (forward face) a child restraint unless: a) Your child is at least 12 months old; b) Is comfortably walking; c) Meets the height markers on the child restraint. d) There are some exceptional circumstances where it's appropriate to rotate a child irrespective of the above, but you need to call and talk to us first.
  • How much do you charge?
    Our prices are simply a reflection of the time required, including travel time to complete the work requested to a high standard. Travel time is the one thing most customers don't account for when researching our prices. Link to our pricing page can be found here.
  • What suburbs do you service?
    We are located in Liverpool, and we generally service suburbs within 15 km. Locations outside this radius are generally time-prohibitive for us, and cost-prohibitive for customers. For a full list of suburbs we service, please see this link.
  • What about last minute or emergency fittings?
    As a rule of thumb we won't service bookings that are last minute, or outside our normal business hours.
  • How do I pay you?
    We can accept cash, card or EFT, usually upon completion of work. For some work, we reserve the right to charge up front, at our discretion.
  • How long does it take to clean a child restraint/pram?
    Usually around 10-15 business days for a Deluxe Clean. The Deluxe Clean the fabrics and inserts are commercially laundered, and, if needed, cleaned again so any soiling is removed. The shell is then thoroughly cleaned by hand to remove any liquids that have been spilled, or crumbs that have made their way into the small gaps in your seat's shell. The harness is then wiped over, many many times, to remove any soiling. Materials and inserts are then air-dried, assessed and delivered back to you fresh and clean.
  • What about hire of child restraints?
    Yes we offer hire of child restraints, two weeks is the minimum period and the restraint must be fitted by us. We recommend booking at least two weeks in advance so we can ensure we have available hire stock for you.
  • What about custom anchor points?
    For those of you that don't know an anchor point is the part of a vehicle to which the top tether of a child restraint is secured. If you need a custom anchor point retro-fitted to your vehicle please call Baby Safe Head Office directly on 1300 44 BABY.
