A Parent Company ~ Go Anywhere Booster Seat Review & Giveaway

Posted by Jenna | Thursday, July 07, 2011




No matter if it's a short trip to Grandma's house or a vacation across the country...there is always a lot of time and thought put into everything we need to take when leaving the house with little ones. With everything from diapers, wipes, spare clothes and other gear...I'm always looking for ways to make our time away from home easier and more convenient. That's why I was excited when introduced to the Go Anywhere Booster Seat.

Phil and Vanessa Carrington are parents who, like many parents, travel with their children and want safe, functional, compact and hip baby gear available to them. Seeing the Go Anywhere Booster Seat while visiting family in England and realizing the need for a product like this in the U.S....Phil and Vanessa started A Parent Company and became the exclusive distributors for the North American market.

Whenever we travel and visit family, we often find ourselves hauling around a booster seat or our space saver high chair so Kaden has a place to sit. I have often thought how great it would be to have something that's more compact and portable...even for the times we go to a restaurant. That's why I was very excited to learn more about the Go Anywhere Booster Seat and couldn't have been happier to learn we were going to have the opportunity to review one.

Features/Benefits:

  • Weighs 1.5 lbs
  • Three sets of adjustable straps to secure to a chair
  • 5 point restraint harness
  • BPA & Phthalate free
  • Wipe clean seat
  • Ideal for traveling and everyday use
  • Compact, lightweight and easy to carry
  • Folds up easily into bag shape with handle and shoulder strap
  • Chic and Hip looking
  • Recommended for children who can sit unassisted up to 40 lbs
When the Go Anywhere Booster Seat arrived, I was immediately impressed with how compact it is. It folds down into a user-friendly bag shape with a handle and shoulder strap (looking much like a messenger bag). How great is that?! This is so much better than having to haul around our big space saver high chair and booster seats!

The size is fantastic! Weighing just 1.5 lbs, it's light enough for even Kaelyn to help carry. It's extremely convenient and ideal for traveling.


Of course, I couldn't wait to see it set up. Unfolding it is as simple as unbuckling the straps, lifting the magnetic flap and setting it on the chair. One thing I couldn't help but wonder about is how safe it would be though. Thankfully, as I unfolded it and began setting it up, I could tell the quality is fantastic and it is something that I can have peace of mind knowing my kids are safe and secure while sitting in it.


The Go Anywhere Booster Seat complies with ASTM International standards. It has three sets of adjustable straps to secure to a chair (two that go underneath and one that goes around the back of the chair). I love that the straps can be adjusted so it can pretty much be used on any adult chair you come across. I couldn't believe how easy it is to strap on and get set up. It takes no time at all to secure to the chair...which is great because I usually have an energetic one year old who's ready to sit and eat!

The 5 point restraint harness and BPA and Phthalate free surface are also things which ensure this seat to be extremely safe for little ones.

We have used the Go Anywhere Booster Seat several times and have found it extremely easy to set up as well as fold down. I love that it can be taken with us no matter where we're going. The design is modern and chic...I absolutely love the pattern. It's neutral and something both my kids can easily use.

As with any gear for children, I am always looking for safety and convenience...especially when it comes to clean-up. I was thankful to find the surface of this seat to be extremely easy to clean which has been wonderful. It's really the perfect booster for on-the-go families, as well as for everyday use. We've used it at home and absolutely love it!

Overall we're definitely impressed with this compact booster seat and can't believe we've gone so long without it. I would definitely recommend parents of young children check out the Go Anywhere Booster Seat. It's a mommy must-have in my opinion.
