CLOSED -- Virtual & In-Person Car Seat Check Questionnaire

UPDATE: We apologize for the inconvenience, but due to the significant decline in Virtual Car Seat Check inquiries over the past six months, as well as Sarah Tilton's recently added job responsibilities, we've made the decision to end this free service. We continue to host in-person seat checks in and around the Fort Mill, SC area and dependent upon safety campaigns and technician availability, we will offer limited-time virtual services. In the meantime, we recommend searching for a safety event sponsored by a Safe Kids Coalition in your area, by visiting: https://www.safekids.org/events. You may also find a child passenger safety technician in your area, by visiting: https://bit.ly/3BG4CDW. For specific questions about your car seat brand and model, we recommend reaching out to the customer service department for that brand.

Britax is offering caregivers virtual car seat checks with Sarah Tilton to provide customized one-on-one education on installation and/or harnessing children in their car seats. While Sarah is willing to assist with ANY BRAND of car seats, we also strongly recommend that caregivers check with the manufacturer of their car seat if they have specific questions and/or concerns. Please note, we reserve the right to refuse or stop any session at any time.

Follow these important steps to help make your session successful:

  • One car seat per consultation. Request an additional session for more than one car seat.
  • Review both your car seat user guide and vehicle owner’s manual prior to our discussion. Have both of them available for reference during the session.
  • Try installing your car seat using the car seat user guide and vehicle owner’s manual ahead of your appointment.
  • Test your WiFi connectivity or cellular reception while standing in the location where you will have your vehicle parked for the virtual appointment.
  • Have a helper available to hold the phone or tablet while you interact with the technician and your car seat.
  • Be sure your car is in a well-lit area with plenty of space on either side of the vehicle to open the doors all the way.
  • Please be ready to start promptly at your scheduled time, as we may have appointments back to back. We want to be available to assist as many caregivers as we can, so extending your time may not be possible.
