Keeping kids safe can feel like a full-time job—but not every possible risk deserves the same amount of worry. Join Michelle Pratt, Dr. Lyndsey Garbi, and Brianne Manz for a practical conversation covering everything from car seats and childhood illnesses to travel, city life, and everyday safety. We’ll help parents understand what really matters, what to do when something goes wrong, and how to keep kids safe without living in fear.

About this event:
Keeping your kids safe can sometimes feel like a full-time job. From car seats and fevers to playgrounds, travel, city streets, and all the everyday moments in between, there’s a constant stream of things parents are told to worry about—and it can be hard to know what actually deserves your attention.
Safe & Supported: Everything From Car Seats to You brings together expertise in car seat safety, pediatric medicine, and real-world parenting to help families focus on the safety measures that matter most without living in a constant state of anxiety.
Featuring Michelle Pratt, Founder of Safe in the Seat and nationally certified Child Passenger Safety Technician; Dr. Lyndsey Garbi, Chief Medical Officer of Blueberry Pediatrics and board-certified pediatrician and neonatologist; and Brianne Manz, creator of Stroller in the City and NYC mom of three, this conversation will combine expert guidance with the reality of keeping kids safe while actually living your life.
Together, we’ll discuss:
- The car seat mistakes even very conscientious parents make
- How to know when your child is ready for the next car seat stage
- What parents should know about car seats in taxis, Ubers, travel, and everyday life
- When a bump, burn, fever, or illness needs medical attention—and when it probably doesn’t
- Everyday safety at home and on the go
- Navigating playgrounds, sidewalks, public transportation, crowds, and travel with kids
- How safety changes as babies become toddlers and bigger kids
- Teaching kids safety without making them fearful
- How to distinguish a meaningful risk from something that’s merely possible
- What parents can stop worrying quite so much about
- How to feel prepared without letting safety anxiety take over family life
Parents will leave with practical tools for keeping their kids safer—and reassurance that being a safety-conscious parent doesn’t mean eliminating every possible risk.
