A child detection and alert system for a vehicle is an easily installed alert system for the driver of a motor vehicle that uses the vehicle's anti-theft system to notify the driver, after leaving the vehicle that a child has been left behind in a child car seat. The system has a sensor mat having two different types of sensors that is placed in the child car seat before the child is seated. The sensor mat has a battery, a transmitter for wirelessly transmitting a signal from the processor in the housing with the transmitter, and a charge cord. A second part of the system has a wireless receiver that plugs into the vehicle's computer and accesses the on-board vehicle anti-theft system to utilize the alarm functions that honk the horn and flash the lights if alarm conditions are met.
