I would think having a third seat installed, either behind driver or passenger would be the safest option. I talked to my DD about her children going with me and seating options. She reminded me that infants/toddlers up to at least two, need to be in a rear facing seat, to support their back and neck. Once they are past two they should remain in a car seat for several more years and progress to a booster seat until they are about 8. There are weight type guidelines too, but children's bodies are generally smaller and they need the extra support and boost because adult seat belts just don't fit. OP, I would seriously look at a long term solution like an installed seat, because the sofa isn't safe seating for children. If you have a dining booth, you could install car seat on front facing seat. That would be the only other safe option.
