About Me
Hi, I am Juliana, I am a mom, and I am a National Car Seat Certified Technician (CPST). When my daughter was born, I was born too. There were many questions, many doubts, and too much anxiety about one subject: car seat safety. I found that there was no clarity or an approachable way to learn about car seat safety for me as a caregiver, and this led me to become a CPST (Child Passenger Safety Tech).
The first 3 years of my daughter's life were dedicated to her, but I was always learning about my biggest passion. Now, I'm here proudly empowering parents to confidently secure their children in a car seat, all in a non-judgmental environment, because, let's face it, parenthood is difficult and far from perfect. As a National Car Seat Certified expert, I've spent time with parents who want to ease their mind and heart about safely transporting their children in a car seat. Some parents come for guidance, some for reassurance, but all with one goal: their children's safety.
Aside from my private consultation, I stay up to date by attending webinars and CPS conferences regionally in NY and around the United States. I also participate in free community car seat check-ups in NYC. I love to educate my local community about car seat safety. I am here to serve you.
My goal is to support you in becoming an expert on your own child’s car seat by teaching you the best and safest practices.

What Parents are Saying
"Just wanted to post a huge shoutout to Juliana for coming last week and helping us with our car seat and all of the safety involved with it. We can’t recommend her enough for new parents or even not so new parents. If you’re unsure about this stuff like we were, reach out! She knows her stuff regarding laws and being safe in the car. We also realized that we were making little mistakes that could cost our daughter her life and to me that is in invaluable. She was also so patient and gentle with my screaming
10 week old!!"

" I really appreciated everything Juliana has done. She made sure my twins car seats were properly installed, she did a follow up visit and has stayed in touch. She was at it for almost 2hrs at a freezing weather. She is great no judgments, is flexible and accommodating. I learned a lot with her. Thanks so much for all your hard work"

I am so happy that I was introduced to Juliana! I was anxious driving around my 3 month old daughter, unsure if we had installed her car seat properly. Juliana came to our apartment and spent a lot of time with us. She first watched how we put our baby into her car seat and then, without judgement, corrected us. After she left, I felt so much more confident & comfortable driving my baby girl around and knowing she’s safe in her car seat. Thank you!
