SnoozeShade Twin Extra
Helping two little ones nap on the go — while keeping them cool, protected and comfortable.
Made from soft, air-permeable mesh — better than breathable, scientifically tested, and safe for newborns.
This is a double-width pushchair shade made from soft, air-permeable mesh, designed to help babies and toddlers nap on the go while staying protected from the sun, wind, chill, insects and light rain.
It has been designed for parents of twins or two children of a similar age, and can be used from birth right up until they outgrow the pushchair. Because the Twin Extra is wider and more flexible than a single shade, it can fit over a double-width carry cot as well as stroller seats.
SnoozeShade Twin Extra can be used in snooze mode or shade mode, both of which provide UV protection. It's easy to switch between the modes whenever you need to.
SnoozeShade Twin Extra can be used in shade mode to shield your children from sun, wind, light rain and insects while still allowing them to see out. Simply zip up the inner window — a single panel of our unique mesh — for protection without blocking their view.
The shade panel has two zips, so you can leave it partially or fully open, or close it completely for maximum protection.
When it's time for a nap, pull down the blackout snooze panel to create a darker, sleep-friendly space. The snooze panel blocks 94% of light and up to 99% of UV rays (UPF50+), blurring distractions and encouraging deeper, longer naps.
The sneak-a-peek zip lets you check on your little ones without letting in too much light. When the snooze and/or shade panels are not in use, simply tuck them away in the integrated front pocket to stop them snagging on your wheels.
When in snooze mode, SnoozeShade Twin Extra acts like a portable blackout blind to create a comfortingly dark space that encourages naps by boosting melatonin (the sleepy hormone). When your child naturally stirs at the end of their sleep cycle, the unique fabric prevents them from latching on to visual stimuli that may stop them getting the deeper, longer nap they need.
SnoozeShade is recommended by baby sleep experts worldwide, because when used regularly it becomes a sleep cue — helping your children learn when it's naptime in the same way shutting the curtains at home does.
SnoozeShade Twin Extra can be used from birth right up until your children outgrow their pushchair.
Of course — it was invented by a mum! All SnoozeShades are machine washable at 30° and can be tumble dried on a low heat.
SnoozeShade Twin Extra is universally sized to fit all double-width prams and pushchairs with one wide hood, including side-by-side twin strollers and jogging strollers. It also fits over a double-width carry cot from birth.
SnoozeShade Twin Extra features elasticated sides and stretchy straps that make it fast and effortless to fit. Here are our top tips:
- 1 SnoozeShade Twin Extra has eight sets of straps, but you don't need to use them all. As long as you have a secure fit with no gaps to let in light, you're good to go.
- 2 Attach the straps to the frame of your pushchair or through any gap you find — hood hinges are ideal. The straps are designed to stretch as needed and can also be attached to each other around the back of (or under) the pushchair.
- 3 Make sure the edge of your SnoozeShade aligns with the edge of the hood — not over it. This ensures that when you open the sneak-a-peek zip, you can see straight into the pram. If the shade is fitted over the hood, the zip will open onto the hood rather than into the pram.

No — SnoozeShade Twin Extra is super lightweight and packs down into a storage pouch (free with every order) that's compact enough to pop into your change bag or buggy basket.
Why SnoozeShade is safe to use
SnoozeShade was invented by Cara Sayer — a safety-obsessed mum who needed to help her daughter sleep and stay protected from the sun in her pushchair. Unlike a blanket or muslin, our scientifically tested fabric is completely air permeable, which means air passes through it freely. If you hold a SnoozeShade up to your face, you'll find you can breathe comfortably.
All our products exceed required UK, European and US safety standards and are approved by the INPAA. Our fabric is not chemically treated, and every component is safe enough for a newborn — including our zips and straps.
Would not live without my SnoozeShade. I have 4 children including 9 month old twins and honestly use it multiple times a day. I am not somebody who can sit at home confined to a routine but equally a routine is needed especially for twins, this helps me balance both - I can get out and about and allow the twins to nap to their usual schedule keeping them happy and refreshed - win win!
Bought it for our holiday with our 6 month old. Great that you can peek at your baby and you have the option of them being able to see out the mesh cover as well as being blackout. Easy to put on the pram and not a faff at all to put on and off and unzip and zip etc.
Perfect for our first holiday to Spain with LO being 5 months we knew she needed protection from the sun. Very easy to put on and the communication was brilliant from order to delivery and beyond. Definitely recommend!
We bought this snooze shade for our holiday last week. This allowed our little one to nap in 30° weather and stay cool and away from the bright sun. It gave me peace of mind that he was comfortable and cool in hot weather. It was also quite windy which this snooze shade kept out of his pram. I will be recommending it to everyone!
My little girl was admitted to hospital with RSV & needed to be on oxygen support for 8 days. While we were there her sleep suffered terribly - the room was brightly lit and the blinds were transparent! Plus all the beeps and lights meant she struggled to fall asleep and stay asleep both day and night. Cara kindly sent us this cover for her hospital bed and it transformed her sleep! We were so grateful - it fits a paediatric hospital cot bed and is excellent at blocking out light and creating a sleep environment that is conducive to sleep - essential all the time but most especially when in hospital and/or unwell. I highly highly recommend for your cot bed at home if you don't have good blackout in your baby's room, or for taking on trips where you can't guarantee a dark sleep environment for your little one (on holiday, other people's houses or even hospital - hopefully not the latter but it's always good to be prepared!) Thank you so much SnoozeShade!
