My friend just got approved as a foster parent. The thing is she is going to be one of those emergency situation one where she will go get the child immediately after they get taken from their home. And keep them for very short periods (usually no longer than a week) until a perminent situation is found. The thing is she can get any age. So she wants to know what seat will fit all kids. I told her there really isn't a 1 seat that fits them all but the AO and that she does not really want that. I told her i would let her borrow my safeseat that i wasn't using. And i was thinking of telling her to get the nautilus. Since the safe seat will get her at least past 1 and 20. And will also harness the longest and turn into a booster if needed. I know the recommondation is past 1 and 20 and the safeseat will get her beyond that. And if she does get one that is in that spot where he is too big for the safeseat but still too young to rearface i will trade her my MA for her nautilus during that period. BUt at least with the nautilus she can put him/her in it until the morning when she gets in contact with me. See the thing is she is probably going to be getting alot of calls in the middle of the night. So she needs a seat at least temporarily and since she will have some of these kids as little as 1 night or even a few hours its not worth buying a brand new seat to fit each kid. She also doesn't want to buy a few seats right now, for a few reasons one being she has other things to buy to get ready and 2. She wants to make sure this is something that is right for her. If it isn't she has decided thta with the 1 seat she has she will happily donate it to Social Services.
