Car Seat Installation for Bay Area Families: Certified, Local & Trusted

One of the most important things you can do to protect your baby on the road is to ensure their car seat is properly installed — every time. Whether you’re a first-time parent or upgrading for baby number two, having your car seat inspected and installed by a certified technician can make all the difference.

At Kids N Cribs, we’re proud to offer professional car seat installation services to families throughout the Bay Area. With a certified car seat technician on staff, we’re one of the few local baby stores that provides this essential service — both for customers and the general public.

👶 Free Car Seat Installation with In-Store Purchase

When you buy a car seat from Kids N Cribs, your installation is on us.

We offer free car seat installation and inspection for every car seat purchased in-store. It’s our way of ensuring that your baby rides home safely — and that you have peace of mind knowing your seat is installed correctly by a certified expert.

🧑🔧 Certified Technicians. Real Peace of Mind.

Proper car seat installation is not as simple as buckling a seatbelt. Studies show that over 50% of car seats are installed incorrectly, which can significantly reduce their effectiveness in a crash.

Our in-house technician is nationally certified to inspect, install, and educate caregivers on:

• Rear-facing and forward-facing seats

• Infant carriers, convertibles, and boosters

• LATCH vs. seatbelt installations

• Proper harness fit and recline angles

• When and how to transition between car seat stages

🚗 Car Seat Installation for the General Public

Not a customer? No problem.

We offer car seat installation and inspection services to the general public starting at $60 per seat. All public appointments must be scheduled in advance. Whether you purchased your seat online, received it as a gift, or are re-installing after switching vehicles — we’re here to help.

📅 Service Details:

• By appointment only

• $60 per seat (includes inspection, install, and guidance)

• Location: Pleasant Hill & Brentwood showrooms

🛡️ Why It Matters — No Matter Your Baby’s Age

Car seats aren’t “one and done” items — they need to be checked regularly for fit, installation integrity, and vehicle compatibility. Whether you’re prepping your car before birth or transitioning to a convertible seat, having your seat inspected by a trained professional ensures:

• Proper positioning for your child’s age, height, and weight

• Compliance with current safety standards

• Compatibility with your vehicle’s seating system

• Confidence in emergency situations
