Find a child restraint technician

Child restraint technicians play a very important role in keeping children safe on our roads. They are able to provide informed advice on the type of child restraint you may need. They also have the practical knowledge to correctly fit your child restraint into a vehicle and show you how to do it too.

Waka Kotahi has been notified that child restraint technicians listed on this page have been trained and certified through an independent competence-based system. Their training has not been independently verified or assessed by Waka Kotahi.
