does anyone use a taxi when minding?
I've got parental permission to take mindees on the bus, do I need permission to take them in a taxi too?

and do I need to take carseats in a minibus style taxi? I'll have a 4 children, 6yr old, 5yrs, 2yrs and 8months.

I don't have a baby carseat, (only got a forward facing one from 9months) and neither does mum so not sure what I'll do for the baby. I think the older ones will be fine without a carseat?

hi my hubby is a taxi driver and you do not need car seats, the baby can sit on your knee but they can only take 4 people intotal including baby, but mini buses can take more.


hope this is helpful

Thanks. Would you be happy to take a minded baby in a taxi without a car seat though?
I've taken my own children without carseats but not sure how I feel about taking a minded child.
