Car seats? For grandparents.

We are going to need a carseat for the grandparents to share soon as I will be returning to work.
LO is 9 months old but on the smaller side 7kg, still in some 3-6 month clothing!

We have the joie isofixed 360 which is fine but I'm looking for something easier and lighter to move from car to car.

Any recommendations?

Ideally lighter weight and easy to move.
Ideally suitable till she is 2/3 at least.
And safe!!

TY in advance!

my IL's have my LO 2 days a week and we bought a car seat for them to keep, I could not be bothered to move it around! Will you be buying a separate isofix base for them to use? Because that's a real arse to move around too.

Sorry should have been more clear- it's too sets of grandparents so the car seat will going between both of them rather than buying two car seats.

One of the Joie seats? Steadi/Tilt? Stages?

Theres a joie one (maybe stages) which isn't isofix but can do rear and forward facibg and wasn't that expensive.

Or if she is still thatblittle is she still within weight limit for the carrier if you had a travel system, my mum used that until DD was 1 i think

Joie tilt. Rear facing, (or forward but much safer to rear face) lightweight and 'small' and belted rather than isofix so
Can be used in all types of cars

Oh and it's usually less than £80

Thank you will have a look into the Joie tilt etc, unfortunately the carrier she has is no longer suitable as she pulls the seat belt from the safety latches- argh! We could get an isofixed carrier but for it only to last a matter of months seems pointless if I could hang fire till she grew a couple inches more and fit into a stage 0/1.

The Joie ones are great for rear facing and would fit her now.
