Baby capsules

By law children must be properly restrained in a car by a correctly-fitted restraint that is suitable for the child's size and weight. A baby capsule is designed to safely restrain an infant travelling in a car, and protect the infant in the event of a car crash.

Council recommends the following two baby capsule hire companies, which provide professional capsule fitting and offer lower rates to concession card holders.

Hire for Baby

Based in Kew , Hire for Baby provides baby capsule hire and a free professional capsule fitting service. The cost for hire is $99 or $49 with concession. These prices cover the hire of a capsule for up to six months.
