Margaret gives such a brilliant…
Margaret gives such a brilliant service. She’s so informative and has such knowledge. I feel so reassured taking her advice. I’m really happy with our new car seat for our impending new arrival. Thanks so much 😀
Don’t even think, just contact her!
This business provides the most amazing service. I find these high-cost purchases for kids really stressful and usually end up overwhelmed by internet research. Margaret has an amazing breadth and depth of knowledge, is a skilled communicator and educator, and has endless patience and calm. She helped me chose a seat that suited my child, the car, my budget and my family. She came to my home and gave me a demonstration of various seats and then fitted my chosen one in the car for me with a full demonstration. I can relax knowing that the kids are comfortable and safe. Thank you to Margaret for lifting one part of my mental load. Will definitely use your service again.
Massive thank you Margaret for all your…
Massive thank you Margaret for all your knowledge, support and advice with looking at options, purchasing and installing our next car seat for our 20 month old. Really impressed with the customer service - from the many questions I had in advance over message and then on the day when you travelled to visit us with a range of options to try out and then install the new seat we decided on. Really impartial and professional advice and guided us to what would be best for our new car and growing family. Once our new baby arrives and has outgrown the infant carrier, I’ll have no hesitation about reaching out to Margaret again to buy our next car seat. Many thanks and 1000% recommend!
Margaret is not only extremely…
Margaret is not only extremely knowledgeable, she is positively a marvellous person! Approachable and quick to answer as many queries you have. We were very much guessing at what we needed for our car and our child, Margaret asks for all the crucial details and then gives an unbiased option.
I feel positive that we have purchased the correct seat for our child and know if I have any further questions she would be happy to answer them in a swift timeframe! Thank you! X
Great customer service
Easy to order, delivery arrived quickly.
Very responsive when I had queries - even called me promptly (and at a convenient mum/job time).
Absolutely fantastic service
Absolutely fantastic service! Thank you so much Margaret! Margaret was very knowledgeable and so patient when trying to decide which car seat was best for us. She installed our new car seat too and showed us how to do it as well. Amazing service thank you so much!
Thank you so much!
Thanks so much to Margaret for the advice and help provided regarding my son's car seat. Thank you for your kindness, patience and understanding and for getting to the cause of the issue I was having and solving it. I don't know what I'd have done without you and I'm pleased to know you're there for future advice!
Great experience
Margaret is professional and knowledgable, she was able to advise me without bias so I could make the best decision for my kid. Highly recommend.
Car seat
Car seat is great but took a long while to be delivered not the 7-10 days as stated was more like 4-5 weeks

Reply from Rear Facing Car Seats
Brilliant
Margaret was so helpful - understanding what we needed, suggesting another potential seat (which she had a special offer on) and actually looking at our car to advise on fit. Got so much out of her visit.
Happy customer
Rear Facing Toddlers was recently recommended to me by another mum and I wish I’d known about them sooner. I called her for the first time less than a week ago. During the phone call we discussed our needs etc and booked an appointment time for Margaret to visit us with some options to try. I found Margaret’s you tube videos very insightful in my research process between the phone call and Margaret’s visit. Watching how knowledgeable she was gave me and my husband the piece of mind that we could trust Margaret as she was clearly very knowledgeable. During her visit we were able to try multiple options. Once settled on the best fit for our car and our family Margaret installed the seats for us and checked the fit for our children.
Brilliant store and great communication…
Brilliant store and great communication from the store owner when I had questions.
I had some issues installing the straps because my car was not playing ball but I purchased what I needed and all is installed.
It is quite fascinating as a products because my 3 year old concertinas herself in and I’m not sure how comfy it is to sit in but I feel reassured that she is as safe as I can help her to be when we are in the car.
I would recommend this store.
Great service
Great product!
Great product Axkid Move as expected, great communication with the seller just a shame about the delivery it was slower than expected.
Would be great if there was an express option.

I was guided to Margaret’s page after being overwhelmed with choices on a RF fb group. She was prompt with responses, eager to help and even offered to meet me (I opted to visit her so we had access to all her stock)
Her knowledge was helpful to make an informed decision and both me and my son are happy with our choice. It was great to “ try before you buy” with someone who understands car safety unlike Halfords!!
I will recommend her to all my friends seeking advice :-)

I've known Margaret for almost 10 years and she's our go to person for anything related to the children's car seats.
We have purchased various car seats over the years from her and Margaret is not only knowledgable, she's also lovely to deal with. We always recommend her to any of our friends who are in need of a car seat.
She shows great care before, during and after you purchase any item from her.
I know that my kids' are as safe as they can be when we follow her advice, and that for a parent is invaluable.
Faultless customer service
Faultless customer service! I've bought a few seats from Rear Facing Toddlers and even years later her support on installations is brilliant!
Highly recommended
Customer service second to none
I was guided the whole way through buying a car seat for my boy! I was really helped to understand all about what’s safest and the best seat for me! She had so much time for me! Really appreciate it!
