By choosing Naélie, mothers are not just acquiring quality products. They are joining a family, a tribe that understands and supports them in their role as a mother.

The softest and most versatile car seat safe poncho on the market: The Naélie car seat safe poncho is designed primarily to keep your little one safe during the first six years of their life, regardless of the car seat or carrier model. Your child will be protected from the cold and bad weather, as well as in the event of an impact, allowing the seat to function effectively in case of an accident.

A high-quality, warm, and waterproof car seat safe poncho: A soft minky fabric with an adorable design on the outside provides warmth and softness for your little one during car rides. Inside, there is a softshell layer with a waterproof, windproof outdoor-quality membrane and soft microfleece for optimal comfort.

These fabrics were carefully selected to ensure a high-quality, durable product. It has been designed to withstand harsh winters and the unpredictable weather of Quebec.

A poncho for three seasons and six years: You no longer need to search for the perfect size every season for your little one. The poncho is adjustable from 0-6 years old and fits all types of car seats and carriers. Its materials are selected so that it can be used in the fall, winter (even in freezing temperatures), and spring. It is waterproof, making it ideal for both heavy rain and snowstorms. You can adjust your child’s clothing according to their need for warmth and the amount of time you will spend outdoors.

How to dress your little one under the car seat safe poncho: On colder days, it’s recommended to dress your child in a hat, mittens, and a neck warmer. You can also add a small fleece jacket.

On warmer days, they can simply wear a long-sleeved shirt underneath. Do not overdress your child under the poncho to avoid the risk of overheating once in the car. If necessary, you can add a small blanket that your child can remove as needed. We all have the reflex to take off our coats after a few minutes in the car, and your little one will feel just as warm after a short time.

The waterproof car seat poncho acts like a small igloo. In a carrier, it covers the entire body, while in a car seat, it covers up to the knees. Very quickly, your little one will be warm and cozy under their poncho.

Snaps for making your car seat poncho extra versatile: The poncho isn’t just for the car. The snaps on the width of the poncho allow you to separate it. You can use it to cover your child while babywearing or during a nice stroller walk, ensuring your little one stays warm and comfortable.

The snaps also allow your child to take their arms out of the poncho without getting too cold. You can also adjust or remove the hood if your child is already wearing a hat.

You can use the poncho in the traditional way, or as a cover. If you’ve strapped your child into their carrier and don’t want to disturb them because they’re calm or asleep, simply drape the poncho over the carrier. Your baby will stay warm and dry between the house and the car. Once in the car, remove the poncho and place it over your little one like a blanket.

Warnings and recommendations:

• In the photos, the poncho is shown attached around the handles. It’s super cute for stroller use, but don’t forget to unfasten it in the car, as it’s FORBIDDEN to attach anything to the carrier handle in a moving vehicle.
• Why can’t I just use a winter coat? The reason is simple. In the event of an impact, the coat compresses and becomes as thin as a sheet of paper, creating a large gap between your child and the harness, which could result in your child being ejected from the seat. Even if you think you’ve tightened the harness as much as possible, it won’t be enough. First, it’s impossible to tighten it as much as the force of an impact would require. Second, your child would be uncomfortably squished.
• The poncho is the safest solution. Once properly placed, it doesn’t interfere with the car seat’s mechanisms. The poncho is simply laid over the seat along with your child. However, make sure it doesn’t extend beyond the carrier to avoid interfering with the seat’s mechanisms.
• It’s strongly recommended to keep your child rear-facing for as long as possible. Even if they appear cramped or their legs are folded, this is truly the safest position for them, as long as no limits of the seat are exceeded.
