5 star service
Excellent service, Mary was very accommodating and a great help
Great service! Return customer :)
Third time I’ve used them and will use again! Thank you!
Disappointed.
When I first had my car seat installed by lovely Nicole I was so satisfied with this service and passed on the number to many people.
This round I was disappoint with the new lady who came down, first I was annoyed about how unorganised she was but I kind of ignored that. Than how she canceled on me twice than decided to cal and rock up ..I got really pissed when changes were not made to the seat but we were charged ...we wanted to change our daughter to forward facing which I completly respect as she was still under line but CHARGED ME $39 for coming to tell me that is unacceptable especially during the crisis everyone Is experiencing financially.
I didn’t even bother refusing to pay as I will no longer return to them. & I was going to get my sisters car seat installed by them aswell but not anymore I will defiantly find elsewhere or do it myself.
Ridiculous to charge $39 for saying I can’t change the seat and this is how you adjust the strap.
I didn’t even bother arguing with this lady or refusing to pay they just lost a customer who brought a lot of customers through to them. It wasn’t my first time using the but for sure my last.

Fantastic service. Being able to hire the Hospital Grade double Medela Breast pump helped me breastfeed for far longer than I would have been able to without this service. Thank you :)

Excellent service and experience. I learnt so much about my car seat and handy hints that have made it easier for me and more comfy for my baby. Would not go anywhere else now.

Amazing customer service!
Charlie and his team have been nothing but fantastic! I am so glad I found his services in 2018 with my first and have come back for my 2nd baby requirements. His passion for child restrain safety is second to none and I can not recommend the services of hire for baby more than enough.
