RENT A CAR SEAT AT TINY LIBRARY
You often only use a child seat for a short time, because as soon as your child has grown, you switch to the next seat. That is why at Tiny Library, you buy every car seat with a buy-back guarantee: you use it for as long as you need it, and when your child has outgrown it, we buy it back. Use the calculator to calculate an expected buy-back price before your purchase, so you have a good idea of what to expect in advance.
Renting is also possible, for example for a short period or a holiday. You then pay a fixed amount per month and are flexible in how long you keep the seat, without the hassle of reselling it afterwards.
At Tiny Library, we rent out top-brand car seats such as Maxi-Cosi, Doonaand Cybexin various sizes. View the entire range above!
WHICH CAR SEAT IS SUITABLE FOR WHICH AGE?
Car seats are categorized into groups, based on your child's height and weight. The age is a guideline; for the right choice, always look at height and weight.
Baby (car seat group 0+), from birth to approximately 12 months.A rear-facing car seat that is positioned against the direction of travel. You use it until your child's head protrudes above the edge. Often compatible with an Isofix base for quick and safe installation.
Toddler (car seat group 1),approximately 9 months to 4 years.A seat that grows with your child, often with a swivel function so you can easily lift your child in and out of the car. Many models can be placed both rear-facing and forward-facing.
Older children (car seat group 2/3), from approximately 4 years to 1.35 meters.A seat or booster seat where your child is secured with the car's seat belt, featuring an adjustable headrest and side protection that grows with them.
In the Netherlands, a car seat is mandatory until your child is 1.35 meters tall.
WHAT SHOULD YOU LOOK FOR WHEN CHOOSING A CAR SEAT?
i-Size (R129).The current safety standard, based on your child's height. i-Size seats are tested for side-impact and keep your child rear-facing for longer, which is safer for the neck.
Isofix or seat belt installation.With Isofix you click the seat or base into the fixed anchor points in your car, without using the seat belt. This reduces the risk of incorrect installation. Not every car has Isofix, so check this before you choose. Read more on our page about Isofix.
Does it fit your car.The space in the back and the shape of the seat differ per car. Check if the seat fits, especially if you want to place multiple seats next to each other.
Grow-with-me or not.A grow-with-me seat lasts longer, while a seat per stage sometimes fits better and is lighter. Both can be a good choice, depending on how often you move the seat.
At Tiny Library, you can buy every car seat with a buy-back guarantee or rent it for a short period. This way, you only pay for the time you need the seat.
FAQs
Car seats are divided into groups based on length and weight. For babies from birth, use a rear-facing car seat (group 0+). From approximately 9 months to 4 years, a group 1 car seat is suitable, and from approximately 4 years, a group 2/3 car seat or booster seat. Always consider your child's length and weight, not just their age.
A booster seat or Group 2/3 car seat is usually used from around 4 years old, when your child has outgrown their Group 1 car seat. In the Netherlands, a child restraint system is mandatory until your child is 1.35 meters tall.
Isofix is the attachment system you use to click a car seat into your car, without using the car's seat belt. i-Size (R129) is the safety standard that modern car seats comply with, based on your child's height. Read more on our page about Isofix and i-Size car seats.
