SnoozeShade for Cots | Cot blackout canopy | Air-permeable fabric

SnoozeShade for Cots makes light-disrupted sleep a thing of the past - at home and away.

• Blackout sleep: It fits over the cot to create a dark, calm space that blocks up to 94% of light - perfect for early mornings, light summer evenings and bright bedrooms.
• Adjustable brightness: The panels can be raised or lowered to tailor the light, so you can dim things for a nap or go fully dark for the night.
• Insect and draft protection: The fine EziBreez® mesh doubles as a built-in mosquito and insect net, and helps keep out drafts so your little one stays comfortable.

It works in your nursery at home and packs down to come with you on a larger travel cot too.

Whether it's the height of summer or a too-bright spare room at the grandparents', SnoozeShade helps your little one sleep in a space that feels dark, calm and familiar.

We match the SnoozeShade to the mattress size rather than the cot's outer measurements, because that's the part that stays consistent.

SnoozeShade for Cots is the right choice if:

• You have a standard cot that takes a 120 x 60 cm mattress, or
• You have a larger travel cot that also takes a 120 x 60 cm mattress.

It's also our safest all-rounder. If you're not sure exactly what you'll be sleeping on, this version fits a standard cot and a larger travel cot, and can also cover smaller and triangular travel cribs at a slightly looser but perfectly safe fit.

Choose a different version if:

• Your travel cot takes a smaller mattress around 95 x 65 cm - in that case SnoozeShade for Travel Cots is the neater fit.
• You have a full-size cot bed with a 140 x 70 cm mattress - in that case you need SnoozeShade for Cot Beds.

All measurements are a guide. The mesh is stretchy and adjusts by several centimetres either way.

Darkness is one of the most powerful sleep cues there is. It tells the body to produce melatonin, the hormone that helps us fall asleep and stay asleep.

🌅 The most common sleep-wrecker for babies and toddlers is light - early summer sunrises, long light evenings, and bedrooms that just aren't dark enough.

🌓 A properly dark room can be the difference between a 5 am start and a reasonable morning, and between a quick nap and a proper one.

🧠 A consistent dark sleep space helps the brain switch off and stay asleep through the lighter parts of the day and early morning.

That's exactly what SnoozeShade for Cots is designed to do: give your little one a reliably dark space to sleep, whether that's their own nursery or a room away from home.

Sometimes you simply can't fix the room. You might be in a rental or an Airbnb with no blackout blinds, staying at a friend's or grandparents' house, or dealing with an awkward-shaped window that no blind ever seems to cover properly. You can't start putting things up on someone else's walls, and clip-up travel blinds never quite seal the gaps.

SnoozeShade solves it from the other direction. Instead of darkening the whole room, it darkens your little one's sleep space directly. They get the same dark, calm conditions a blackout blind would give them, without you having to touch the windows or the walls.

It's a bit like taking your blackout blinds with you, except they travel with you and fit right over where your little one sleeps - so they work in any room, anywhere.

SnoozeShade began with a simple idea: help babies sleep safely and comfortably, wherever they are. The Original was created for newborns in a pram - but parents kept asking for help with the cot too, especially in summer and in rooms that just wouldn't go dark.

🌙 So we made a version that fits over a standard cot. It blocks the light that disrupts sleep and creates a calm, dark space, without sealing the cot up.

🦟 Because it fully encloses the cot, the mesh also acts as an insect and mosquito net, and helps keep out drafts.

🌬️ And because it's made from our air-permeable EziBreez® mesh, air moves through it freely, so you get darkness with healthy airflow.

It's the product that helps protect your little one's sleep on the brightest mornings and the longest summer evenings.

When a room is too bright, even a tired baby fights sleep. SnoozeShade removes that obstacle.

🌓 It creates a dark, calm space that helps your little one wind down and drop off.

🔁 Used consistently, it becomes a sleep cue - the same familiar signal that it's time to sleep, every nap and every night.

🌅 It's especially loved for protecting early-morning sleep in summer, when the sun is up long before your toddler should be.

💤 Many parents tell us it's the thing that finally gave them a reasonable wake-up time again.

The result? Longer naps, later mornings, and a better-rested little one.

It's a myth that only babies need naps. In fact, most toddlers and many preschoolers still benefit hugely from daytime sleep - especially during growth spurts or big transitions.

😴 Sleep supports brain development, emotional regulation, and behaviour. Overtired children are more prone to tantrums, fussy eating, and poor sleep at night.

🧠 Studies show that children who nap regularly are better able to process information, manage emotions, and retain new skills.

🌞 But getting toddlers to nap in a bright room isn't always easy. With light streaming in, they resist sleep even when they're clearly tired.

That's why SnoozeShade for Cots is such a help.

• It blocks out the light and visual distractions that keep little ones awake.
• It helps the brain shift into "rest mode" even in the middle of a bright day.
• And because it creates a familiar, consistent sleep environment, your little one knows what to expect.

Protecting naps protects everyone's sleep. SnoozeShade helps you do it.

We know safety comes first, especially when it comes to your child's sleep.

That's why every SnoozeShade is designed by a mum (and UK safety ambassador) to meet the highest safety standards in the world. In fact, SnoozeShade is the only range of pram and sleep shades approved by INPAA (Infant & Nursery Products Alliance of Australia), Australia's leading safety authority for nursery products.

• ✔️ Made from our exclusive EziBreez® air-permeable mesh, which lets air pass through freely and is safe enough for a newborn to breathe against.
• ✔️ Better than breathable - the mesh has been tested to rigorous air-permeability standards, so you get darkness without sealing the cot up.
• ✔️ No long straps, toggles, magnets or buttons - nothing that could pose a choking, strangulation or entrapment risk. We only use short, safely positioned straps.
• ✔️ No toxic dyes or chemicals. Every part of SnoozeShade is tested to the same standards as a newborn toy, including checks for heavy metals, flammability and more.
• ✔️ Trusted by over half a million families and recommended by sleep consultants, safety experts and health professionals around the world.

SnoozeShade was invented because safety mattered. And that will never change.

We believe clever products should make your life easier, not more complicated. That's why every detail of SnoozeShade for Cots is designed with tired parents in mind.

• ✔️ Fits in seconds - It goes over the cot and secures with short straps around the legs or frame. No tools, no fuss.
• ✔️ Adjustable brightness - Raise or lower the panels to dim for a nap or go fully dark for the night.
• ✔️ Home and away - Use it on your cot at home, or take it on a larger travel cot when you go away.
• ✔️ Doubles as an insect net - The mesh keeps mosquitoes and insects out, and helps block drafts.
• ✔️ Machine washable - Easy to keep clean. Just pop it in the washing machine at 30 degrees. You can hang it to dry or tumble dry on a low heat.
• ✔️ Folds away - Packs down small when you don't need it.

Parents call it a lifesaver for a reason. It works - simply and brilliantly.

This is one of the most common questions we're asked - and it's an important one.

The advice you may have seen is: don't cover a cot with anything that restricts airflow, like a blanket or muslin. That advice is right - but SnoozeShade is not that kind of cover.

SnoozeShade is made from our unique EziBreez® air-permeable mesh, which means air flows freely in and out of the cot. It's better than breathable - because it's actually been tested to rigorous air-permeability standards, and shown to allow healthy airflow even when fully closed.

Unlike a blanket or muslin, there's no sealed air chamber and no "greenhouse effect" - just a constant flow of air through the mesh.

• • The mesh blocks light while still allowing excellent ventilation.
• • Parents in hot climates like Australia, the UAE, and Southern Europe have used SnoozeShade safely since 2010.
• • Every SnoozeShade is tested to the same safety standards as a newborn toy.

So you get the darkness your little one needs to sleep, without compromising on airflow.
