<\/a><\/p>\nCommenting on the survey findings, Chan added: \u201cWe understand that many parents in Singapore do not own child booster seats and prefer not to invest in one so we are making every GrabCar on the road child-friendly by partnering with mifold. Trained GrabCar drivers can now legally transport child passengers aged four to seven. Grab cares deeply about safety and will continue to invest in making Grab the safest transport platform for our passengers.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\u201cWe are delighted to be selected by Grab to be the exclusive partner for the GrabFamily program,\u201d said Jon Sumroy, CEO and inventor of the mifold Grab-and-Go booster seat. \u201cWe created the ultra-compact car seat category with mifold so that more children will be safe in more cars on more journeys, more of the time. In Singapore many people rely on shared transport services to travel and it is simply not practical for passengers to carry around large bulky booster seats. Likewise, drivers cannot carry traditional bulky booster seats, taking up valuable space needed by passengers and for luggage.\u201d Jon added, \u201cWe are proud to be partnering with Grab who will be the only ridehailing company in Singapore to offer booster seats in their entire fleet, demonstrating their true commitment to child passenger safety.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\nA safer ride for child passengers with mifold booster seats <\/b><\/p>\n
To ensure a safe and comfortable ride experience for child passengers and their parents, Grab selected the mifold Grab-and-Go booster seat \u2013 an advanced, compact and portable design that conforms to the most universally accepted global booster car seat regulations1<\/span>.<\/p>\nAs opposed to regular child booster seats that come in various forms and sizes, the mifold booster seat is a tenth of the size and easy to set up. Unlike a regular booster seat which requires the lifting of a child to be in the position of an adult, the mifold Grab-and-Go booster seat holds the seatbelt down to fit the child properly. Its unique design aids in shifting the seatbelt away from the child\u2019s stomach and neck so that it fits snugly across the child\u2019s chest and hips, keeping the child comfortable and protecting him from injury. The mifold Grab-and- Go booster seat can be easily adjusted to fit child passengers between four to seven years old, weighing between 15kg to 36kg, and under 1.35m in height.<\/p>\n
For drivers, the compact mifold Grab-and-Go booster seat offers greater convenience as it can be folded into half and stored in the glove or door compartment, retrieved and set up easily whenever there is a child passenger on the ride. The booster seat is made of easy-to-clean material and stays cool even on a hot, sunny day, making it hygienic for sharing.<\/p>\n
Choose Safety, Book GrabFamily <\/b><\/span><\/p>\nEach GrabFamily ride comes with one mifold Grab-and-Go booster seat for children aged between four and seven years old and weighing between 15 and 36 kg.<\/strong><\/span> Parents can book a GrabFamily ride by selecting the GrabFamily icon on the Grab app to ensure they are allocated to a car with the booster seat. Bookings can be made on-demand or in advance, and fares are shown upfront. A GrabFamily booking is just $2 more than the regular GrabCar Economy base fare of $2.50. As of today, more than 1,000 GrabCar drivers have started serving GrabFamily bookings, with all drivers to be onboard over the next few months.<\/p>\nFor the best travel experience, Grab advises parents to<\/p>\n
\n- Introduce their child to a car seat from an early age <\/b><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
As part of our research through conversations with parents, Grab has found that younger children prefer a car seat they are familiar with. Parents should introduce a child car seat early, as it takes time for children to get used to being buckled into a car seat. If a child has a car seat that he or she already likes, parents can use them for their Grab rides.<\/p>\n
2. Book GrabFamily if travelling with young kids <\/b><\/p>\n
Parents should book a GrabFamily ride by default to ensure drivers are prepared for a ride with a child.<\/strong><\/span> Those who book a GrabCar ride and do not have a child restraint with them will be charged a $2 fee on top of their GrabCar fare for the use of mifold booster seat.<\/p>\n3. Communicate your request early on <\/b><\/p>\n
If parents have any additional requirements, they can leave a note when making a booking, or send drivers a message using the GrabChat in-app function and save on SMS charges. This helps them assess early on if they can accept the ride request, giving parents more time to make alternative arrangements if needed.<\/p>\n
Grab is the sole authorised dealer for mifold Grab-and-Go booster seats for the transportation and ride-hailing industry in Singapore. Private-hire car drivers, taxi drivers and transport companies can purchase the mifold Grab-and-Go seat from Grab\u2019s office at 18 Sin Ming Lane, #01-08 Midview City, Singapore 573960.<\/p>\n
