About Sitting Safely Austin

Hi, I'm Janeth — a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST) with years of hands-on experience helping Austin-area families keep their children safe on the road.

My journey started at a local fire department as an outreach coordinator. First responders were seeing far too many preventable crashes where children were not properly restrained. Determined to make a real difference, I became a certified CPST and created a community initiative that provided free car seats and safety education to families who needed them most.

That work led me to the Kids in Cars program at Dell Children's Medical Center (Ascension Seton), where I served as program coordinator. There I performed hundreds of car seat checks, earned specialized training for children with special needs, led Safe Kids CPST certification trainings, collaborated with TxDOT on regional check events across Central Texas, and shared safety messages through PSAs on FOX 7 Austin. My service covered Bastrop, Caldwell, Hays, Travis, and Williamson counties.

Today, through Sitting Safely Austin, I bring that same expertise and commitment directly to you — offering personalized, unrushed appointments at your home, driveway, or a safe nearby location. Whether you're setting up a newborn rear-facing seat, transitioning to a booster, installing for multiples, or working with special needs accommodations, I make sure your child rides safely and you feel confident every single time.

Safety isn't just my profession — it's my purpose. I'm here to give your family the peace of mind you truly deserve.
