A system for tracking whether a child has been left in a child's car seat includes a child seat sensing device with s proximity sensor that can sense a child's presence in the car seat. The seat sensing device can communicate with a GPS tracker in the vehicle, which can communicate with a camera onboard the vehicle. The seat sensing device is configured so that if the proximity sensor senses a child's presence in the car seat when the vehicle ignition is off, the seat sensing device will send an alert signal to the GPS tracker. In response to the alert signal, the GPS tracker is configured to cause the camera to send an alert to a user, capture an image of the car seat in the vehicle, and send the image to the user.
