Important — Who Fits the Child Seat
For safety and insurance reasons, the parent or guardian is responsible for fitting and securing the child in the seat. Your driver provides the correct clean seat — fitting it is yours to do at pickup.
This is our policy for child seat bookings. The parent or guardian should fit the seat and make sure their child is correctly secured before the journey begins.
Allow a few extra minutes at pickup to fit the seat correctly before you travel.
