Thought I'd post this here, since I know there are a lot of expecting moms with carseats waiting to be installed, and parents with young kids who might want to get their seats checked.
Regions Hospital, in partnership with the Oakdale
Fire Department, will host a car seat clinic to promote child passenger
safety. During the clinic, Regions technicians will inspect the car
seat, provide installation tips and check the car seat for any
manufacturer recalls. In addition, information will be provided on how
to transport older children. Most older children cannot properly or
safely use adult seat belts found in most cars.

Re: Anyone interested in getting their car seat checked for free?
I'll probably be working this one. Let me know if you're planning on coming that day!
We also typically have one a month at the hospital as well.
Emilie are you a CPST now?
I'll be there! And after that day, I'll be a CPST
I can't wait to meet you!!
oh, is this the seat check that's part of the current class? If so, I won't be there. they have more than enough help from the students they don't ask us to come in.
I just have a long list of dates from Diana and Esther, and can never remember which are which.
Oh, boo. Well I'll meet you at the next one at Regions.
LOL, I just realized that I dont know your first name. Hopefully you dont mind sharing that so I dont have to ask everyone if they've seen "MrsGo4Hockeychick" at the next carseat clinic
LOL. It's Christie. (we met when our kiddos were less than a year, at the MOA...it was a long time ago though)
I should be at the next regions one. I want to get senior checker during my next certification, and then I want to be an instructor.
Doh. Sorry, I do remember meeting you, but for some reason I wasnt connecting YOU to "MrsGo4". LOL!
