ABSTRACT:
A support apparatus for a child's safety seat allows the user to adjust the tilt of the safety seat while maintaining a child in a safe position. The support apparatus comprises a base portion, an upper portion connected to one end of the base portion, and a bottom portion connected to an opposite end of the base portion. The upper and bottom portions may be attached to the base by adjustable hinges, or they may be attached in a fixed position. A foot support is attached to the bottom portion. The bottom portion engages the floor of a vehicle for added support. The bottom portion further includes protective braces extending from the bottom portion and running vertically along its length. Multiple protective braces create channels in which children place their legs on foot supports within each channel. A child safety seat adapted to receive the invention is also disclosed.
