Harness straps should be at or above shoulder level-check manual.
Belt-positioning booster seats are used with lap\shoulder belt combination only.

Remember
Do not place infants in the front seat of vehicles with active air bags.
5-point harnesses provide the best protection
Make sure the lap belt portion fits low and tight to avoid abdominal injuries.

Children 12 and under are safest when properly restrained in the rear seat. Keep children rear-facing as long as possible. Always refer to the child safety seat instructions and vehicle manufacturer's instructions for weight and height limits, proper use and installation.

Q. Can you install carseats?
A. Due to liability, Rockabye personnel cannot install car seats or assist with installation of car seats. Manufacturer Instructions are provided with each rental. However, if you are unsure about the installation, we strongly encourage you to stop at any Fire Station or Police Station to request assistance.

Q. Can we be met at the Airport?
A. We offer Airport Meet & Greet service. Since each airport is designed differently and has different security rules, please provide us with your arrival/departure information and car rental information, if available, so we can best assist you with these arrangements. We do not leave equipment with Car Rental Agencies due to damage and loss, we are happy to meet you at the car rental location.

Q. Are there reasons I should not use the Hotel's crib?
A. Some hotels offer full-size cribs, but do not use crib sheets; instead they wrap a regular bed sheet around the crib mattress. This is dangerous for infants and children and poses a suffocation and strangulation hazard. Other hotels only supply Pack N Play's or Portacribs which are uncomfortable and not appropriate for toddlers. Before you commit to using a hotel's crib, be sure to ask about the size, the sheets and the condition. If you arrive and are unhappy with what the hotel has provided, give us a call and we will be happy to accommodate your needs.

Q. What if I am not satisfied with the condition of the equipment delivered?
A. We are confident you will be satisfied with the condition of the equipment. We conduct safety inspections and sanitize each piece of equipment before each rental. If you are not satisfied with the equipment, we are happy to replace it as soon as possible. We do not offer refunds or exchanges following the rental period or on toys or items due to a childs lack of interest in the item.

Q. What are the rental terms?
A. Rental terms and conditions are clearly communicated in the rental agreement. We ask you to read them carefully before signing. Acceptance of rental terms are required to secure an order. You may read our complete Terms and Conditions by clicking this link.

Q. When will my credit card be charged?
A. You will be charged the full amount of your rental request to secure your reservation. Cancellations made within 48 hours of scheduled pick up or delivery will be charged 50% of the full reservation amount or receive full company credit to be used at a later date of travel. Cancellations on-site or no-show for self pick up will not be refunded. All other circumstances are subject to immediate full refund.

Q. How far in advance should I make a reservation?
A. You should place your reservation as soon as you know your travel dates. If you will be traveling around a holiday we recommend reserving early, as we do sell out at peak seasons. All equipment is on a First Come/First Served basis, equipment is not confirmed until the completed rental agreement is received. Availability of equipment is confirmed when a reservation is made.

Q. Why should I rent instead of traveling with my own equipment?
A. The reasons are many and varied - It is additional and often bulky luggage. Most Airlines now charge for extra luggage, especially with International flights. With increased security at Airports globally, increased luggage per person equals a longer check in process for all. Airlines can on occasion damage and loose your equipment in transit, claims are difficult to file and rarely are compensated in such instances. Traveling with a child is a much more comfortable and pleasurable experience, knowing all your baby's needs can be catered to at your final destination.
