age for child trailers

As a new father I'm excited to start biking with my daughter in a child
trailer. How young can children be to safely ride in a trailer?

Chariot Baby Supporter
The fleece Baby Supporter helps children between from about 3-4
months to about 18 months of age sit upright and nap
comfortably. The head support is removable, for when your child
is old enough for a helmet (usually around 1 year old). Works
with 5-point harnesses. Compatible with all Chariot products
except the SideCarrier. (Note that cycling is not recommended
for children under 1 year of age; this accessory is for using
your Chariot for walking or jogging.)

That's a manufacturer's recommendation/CYA move. I certainly don't know
how it relates to "safely" riding.

I think I recall seeing something about helmets not being available for
children under about one year of age for similar reasons.

DS was in the trailer when he could easily hold up his head. I don't
remember anymore what age that was. Somewhere under 6 months?
