carseat/booster seat help

we need to get another car seat or booster seat for dd who will be 4 in June because for a few days per week she will be going to a baby sitter who may take her on field trips and we want her to have one in case of emergency anyways.  What seat would you recommend or are you happy with for your 4yr old?

  • We have ds (almost 4.5, 45.5 inches and 44 lbs) in an Evenflo Maestro. It has LATCH to 48 lbs, harnesses to 50 lbs and has an 18" seated harness height. Then it's a belt positioner to 100 lbs.

    He can sleep in it well without falling over.

    It was $80.

  • We have the Graco Nautilus for DD2, who is 5.  Love it.  She is still in the 5pt harness in there.

  • I really like our Graco Nautilus, but I'd want something lighter if it were a seat that would be a moved a lot. I like our Graco Turbobooster as our second seat for moving into grandparents' cars, field trips, etc.  (But I wouldn't have used it much before 5 years old.)
