When it's spring time in Alberta and you are trying to plan car seat clinics, sometimes you have to switch up plans last minute. West End Nissan was more than accommodating to allow one of our Instructors to move the clinic indoors. Here is the amazing video they put together!

🚗 **Car Seat Clinic Update – New Indoor Location!** 🚗

Well…after looking at the weather forecast this VERY snowy morning ... Alberta spring has spoken ❄️🥶

Due to the colder temperatures forecasted for April 1st (and it looking like it’s only getting chillier!), we’ve made the decision to **move the clinic indoors** so everyone can stay warm and comfortable.

📍 **New Location:** West End Nissan | 18010 Stony Plain Road
(Big thanks to them for jumping on board and supporting this clinic!) 🙌 West End Nissan

Everything else remains the same:
⏰ Appointments are still required
🎉 You’ll still be entered to win the **$150 West Coast Kids gift card** if you register and attend

We’re so glad to still be able to run the clinic and help keep your little ones riding safely—just a lot warmer now! 😊

Just a quick reminder that our Car Seat Clinic is coming up next week!

Appointments are required, so be sure to book your spot in advance. (Drop-ins will only be accepted if space allows on the day of.)

If you’ve been meaning to get your child’s car seat checked or installed properly, this is a great opportunity to have it done with certified technicians.

👉 Please help us spread the word by sharing this post with friends, family, and local groups — the more families we can reach, the better!

There are still spaces available on both the Edmonton and Calgary course.
If you’ve been thinking about taking this course but the cost has been a bit of a barrier, the instructor has now enabled AfterPay as a payment option.

This is a great reminder to check the manual before cleaning your car seats.

If you need assistance, you can always DM us or find a local CPST in your area here
www.cpsac.org/find-a-tech

When a car seat gets dirty, parents often wonder: hose it off, toss it in the washer, or throw it away?

The answer depends entirely on the manufacturer’s guidelines for that specific seat. Car seats are carefully engineered systems—fabrics, foams, harnesses, and chest clips all work together for safety.

Cleaning methods outside the manual can damage these components or change how they function in a crash. That’s why taking a few minutes to read the instructions isn’t just about cleanliness—it’s about keeping your child as safe as possible.

Need help navigating your car seats manual? Reach out to a local Child Passenger Safety Technician (search here: https://bit.ly/SafeKidsTechSearch) or find a local fitting station where Child Passenger Safety Technicians are on staff and ready to help you make sure your child is riding safe in the car!
