A single working mom is in need of a convertible car seat for her youngest child. Although she is working full time, as a single mom to 3 young children, the budget never seems to stretch as far as one would hope. As her youngest has grown, they have gotten too big for their infant carseat. As safety is always the number one priority for her children, this mother knows she needs a bigger car seat, but cannot afford one.
