- Harness
This is what will keep your baby from being thrown forward when you brake or stop. It also will be essential in keeping baby in place when they start moving and wriggling. Look for a 5-point harness that goes around baby’s waist, over the shoulder and between her legs. All harnesses need to be sufficiently padded for baby’s comfort.
- Easy to clean
Ensure it has easy detachable parts you can easily remove, clean and re-assemble. Trapped dust or dampness can give baby respiratory problems. It also will require occasional washing after spillages, wet burps or diaper
