Baby Car Mirrors

Keeping a child safe whilst travelling can be hard if you are driving around solo with no one to sit in the back of the vehicle next to them. A baby-watching mirror resolves this problem by allowing a clear view of a little one at a glance. This means you don’t have to spin your head around, which is incredibly dangerous when driving. Instead, you can include a look in the mirror as one of your constant visual checks that we all carry out whilst moving from A to B. 

A baby-watching mirror ultimately improves safety for everyone in the vehicle. This can help to reduce distractions and increase concentration while driving. Having eyes on your baby also gives you peace of mind, making for a relaxing car interior. A happy parent leads to a happy child!

These mirrors are also easy to fit, can be moved between vehicles and offer versatility as they can be positioned to provide a view for the driver or front passenger. Finally, the mirror promotes a strong connection and communication between the baby and the parent. This supports healthy cognitive development and increases the bond that is so important during the first few months.

The process of fitting a baby-watching mirror is very simple and can be done quickly. All you need to do is find the angle you want, then use the provided straps to secure the mirror. Each product will be slightly different in how this is achieved but equally as easy.

Once the mirror is in place, be sure to test it to ensure it's secure and also examine what the reflection is capturing. The last thing you want is to run into trouble once you have set off on a journey. 

Even though baby watching mirrors can be used in most vehicles, it’s important to still check the suitability of the headrest before making a purchase. You will need to have an adequate area to attach the straps too as well as the option to adjust the headrest if a different height is required. 

Additionally, it's important to ensure that the mirror does not obstruct your view of the road which can be the case for some headrest designs.

The main thing to be aware of is maintaining eyes on the road most of the time. While we understand keeping an eye on your child is vital, it can also be distracting, so be sure to find a good balance. You should also ensure that the mirror is maintained in a good and clean condition to ensure a clear view is always on offer. Maintenance is also important to check that the securing straps are in the right position and will not come loose.
