Abstract: An automobile booster seat for a child having a unitary seat portion and upwardly extending sidewalls and a tubular frame terminating above each of the sidewalls. Mating shields are slidably and rotatably mounted on the terminal ends of the frame above the sidewalls and are rotatable between a mating position in front of the occupant and a raised position above each of the sidewalls so as to facilitate placement and removal of the occupant. The shields are slidable between two positions so as to accommodate occupants of varying sizes. The shields are configured so as to provide an outer channel for accepting an automobile seat belt so as to maintain the seat firmly against the automobile seat when the seat belt is secured.
