i also dont use a high chair, too big and clunky to have floating around after daycare is closed. I use a reggalo seat that attaches to the side of the table, you'd never even know it was there. once the kids are about 1.5 or so, they go into boosters that set on the chair, no straps just sit with them during lunch and they get wiped and put away right after. by the time they are about 2.5 they are encouraged to sit on knees and eat over their plate.
