Cars Reminding Parents Not To Leave Child In Car?
According to the Advocacy Group Kids And Cars, August was the deadliest month on record for fatalities involving children being left in hot cars. Since September is National Infant Mortality Awareness month, a health fair was held in Houston on Wednesday to educate the community on ways to prevent infant mortality.
We have two children — 3 years old and 18 months. We have not had to do this so far, but we are considering hiring a nanny. She would be responsible for dropping off my 3 year old to the day care. The nanny also has a 18 month old child. We’re planning to have her take all three children with her in a van to drop off my 3-year old to day care. However, I thought it would be ok if she left the two 18-month old children in the car while she dropped the 3-year old in the day care. This is a very safe area and both the 18-month old children would be buckled up in their car seats. The nanny shouldn’t be gone for more than a minute. I know there is always a small possibility that something could go wrong, but it appears to me that this situation is fairly safe. The day care has their own parking lot — so there aren’t a lot of people walking around there and this is a very safe neighbourhood.
Each year in Victoria, children travelling in motor vehicles are needlessly killed or injured because their parents and carers misuse the restraint, and/or use the incorrect restraint for their child. The Multilingual Guide to Child Restraints and Booster Seats has been developed by VicRoads to help parents and carers choose the correct restraint for their child and know how to use it safely For more information go to www.vicroads.vic.gov.au Video Transcript: www.vicroads.vic.gov.au
