A child seat occupancy warning device for warning a driver of an occupied child seat includes an alarm. The alarm is configured to couple to a child safety seat that is positioned in a vehicle. The alarm is reversibly and operationally couplable to a driver's side seatbelt of the vehicle. The alarm is activated upon coupling to the driver's side seatbelt. The alarm is compelled to issue a warning upon decoupling of the alarm from the driver's side seatbelt. The alarm is positioned to couple to the driver's side seatbelt such that the driver's side seatbelt is fixed in an extended configuration. Decoupling of the alarm from the driver's side seatbelt is required for a driver to exit the vehicle. Decoupling of the alarm from the driver's side seatbelt compels the alarm to issue a warning to the driver that there is an occupied child safety seat in the vehicle.
