Letting your baby sleep in the car seat is super risky—here’s why —

While it’s safe for your baby to have a cat nap as you drive from point A to B—provided it’s not too long of a journey, though no evidence-based limits have been determined—you shouldn’t continue to let them sleep when you arrive at your destination, says the Canadian Paediatric Society. When you remove the bucket seat from its base in a vehicle and place it on another surface, the baby’s position can change.

Hutka adds that sometimes caregivers will only buckle up the chest clip and leave the ones between the legs undone. As a result, a child can slide down in the seat, catch their neck on the chest strap and strangulate themselves.
