We have just moved to Canada from the UK so are not very familiar with car seats here so your advice will be greatly appreciated.
We have just bought Toyota Corolla 2010 and urgently need to purchase car seats for out 2 daughters.
DD1 will be 3 years old in about a month and is tall and slim 39 in and 30 lbs
DD2 is 2.5 months old and 24 in and 12 lbs
I did some research and right now we are thinking about Britax Boulevard for DD1 and Graco SnugRide 35 for DD2. My plan is that DD1 will use Britax Boulevard forward facing for a year and a bit until DD2 outgrows her Graco. Then we will buy child/booster seat (Britax Frontier?) for DD1 (then 4 years old) and DD2 will be rear facing in Britax Boulevard.
For your information we did not have a car before and on occasions we rented one our DD1 was forward facing (she hated rear facing as a baby) so it is not likely she accepts rear facing seat now. Also I would like to seat at the back with children for the first few months if possible (I am slim).
This is our plan but since I do not know much about Canadian seats I would appreciate your comments, recommendations and suggestions.
Also where in Toronto I can go to check if my seats are fitted properly?
