Taxi with Baby Car Seat Melbourne

AS/NZS 1754 Certified

Every child restraint meets Australian Standards AS/NZS 1754 and Australian Design Rules. The same safety requirements that apply to private vehicles apply to ours.

Correctly Fitted, Every Time

Our drivers are trained in child restraint installation per AS/NZS 1754 manufacturer guidelines. If you prefer to use your own seat, they will assist with fitting before the trip starts.

Sanitised Before Every Booking

Every seat is cleaned and sanitised before each trip. We do not cut corners on hygiene when transporting infants and young children.

Available at Any Hour

Middle-of-the-night hospital runs, early morning airport departures, late school pickups. We are available around the clock, every day of the year.

No Extra Charge for the Seat

Baby and child seats are included in your quoted fare. You will not see a line item for the seat on your receipt.

All Airports Covered

We provide baby seat-equipped vehicles at Melbourne Airport (Tullamarine), Avalon, and Essendon Fields. Just mention it when booking.

Newborns to ~12 Months

Rear-Facing Seat

The safest restraint for infants. In a crash, it spreads the impact across your baby's back, head, and neck rather than concentrating it on one point. Use rear-facing until your baby reaches the seat's maximum weight limit.

Newborns · Infants · Up to ~12kg

6 Months to ~4 Years

Forward-Facing Seat

Once your child has outgrown the rear-facing limit, a forward-facing seat with a five-point harness provides full upper-body protection. Suitable from around 6 months when your child can sit upright, up to approximately 4 years.

Toddlers · 9kg to 18kg · Up to 4 years

4 to 8 Years

Booster Seat

When your child outgrows the harness seat, a booster positions the vehicle seatbelt correctly across their body. Required by law in Victoria until age 7. Our drivers know the installation.

Older children · 18kg and above · 4 to 8 years

We recommend at least two to three hours notice for baby seat requests. For early morning airport runs, booking the night before is the safest approach.

Every seat is cleaned and sanitised before each booking. Hygiene matters more when transporting infants and young children, and we treat it accordingly.

In Victoria, children under 7 must be secured in an approved child restraint. Taxis are technically exempt when no seat is available — but we provide one for every booking. See VicRoads child safety guidance.
