She is fine sitting at the table but strapping her in would be a good option if she is having a hard day. I just worry the chair would not be substantial enough for a booster and it would become top heavy and fall over.
One of the best things to use for securing a child to a chair is to use the walking harness with the rein. The rein is wound through the rungs of the chair and then the harness is put on and child is clipped into place. The harness is under the bib so it stays clean - if you can find the ribbed nylon ones they wash better than the leather ones of course. We used this from the time our special needs child was 15 months till she was 6 to secure her onto any chair moving from a child`s chair to an adult chair as needed.
