Sound familiar? If your baby has reached the stage where they’re sitting up in their pushchair (usually at around six months), you’re probably finding they’re less than keen on taking naps while you’re out and about. After all, they’ve discovered the world is a fascinating place, and they’ve got better things to do than sleep!

But you KNOW they need those naps… and probably will do until they’re around three. So if they won’t now sleep in their buggy, does that mean your only option is to stay home for every naptime?

Fear not. SnoozeShade Plus Extra is here to save the day.

Invented by a UK mum who was once in your shoes, this air-permeable buggy shade safely shuts out light (and – bonus – up to 99% of UV rays) to help your child sleep soundly while you’re out and about. Built-in see-through windows keep your little one happy between naps, but when it’s time for a snooze you can simply roll down the blackout panel to create the perfect environment for a long, undisturbed sleep.

It’s just like having a portable blackout blind for your buggy!

  • Exceeds UK safety standards
  • Compatible with any single-width pushchair or buggy with a hood
  • Will last until your child outgrows their buggy

"We are out and about a lot and I genuinely think the reason my baby sleeps SO well on the go is because of this product! It's quite literally incredible and as a new mum of a 9-month-old, its my number 1 baby product. Thank you Cara for making it!"

“But my baby hates not being able to see out of their pushchair!”

SnoozeShade founder Cara invented this game-changing buggy shade for that very reason! After creating SnoozeShade Original to protect her baby daughter, Cara was dismayed to find that when Holly reached six months old and sat up, she was suddenly much less happy to have her view of the world restricted! So, she put her inventor’s hat back on and developed SnoozeShade Plus Extra, complete with its built-in see-through window and sleep-inducing blackout panel.

When your child is awake, you can uncover the window to let them watch the world go by while still being protected from the sun – we call this Shade Mode. When it's time for that all-important nap, you can cover the window to convert to Snooze Mode, giving your little one their sleep cue and the perfect environment for a long, undisturbed sleep.

  • air In Shade Mode, your child can see out of the inner window but is protected from 80% of UV rays, as well as from wind, light rain and pesky insects.
  • air In Snooze Mode, a blackout panel safely covers the window to create a comfortingly dark space that boosts melatonin and blurs distractions to encourage sleepy time!
  • air What's more, with the air-permeable snooze panel in place your baby is protected from 99% of UV while they sleep.

Made with obsessive attention to safety

To this day, Cara is as obsessed with SnoozeShade's safety as she was when she invented it for her own baby. That's why you can count on it not only to transform your little one’s daytime naps, but to keep them safe in every way possible.

Better than breathable

Unlike a blanket or muslin, our mesh fabric has been independently tested and proven to be air permeable – which means air passes through it easily.

There is no danger that your baby's ability to breathe will be affected. In fact, if you hold a SnoozeShade up to your face you'll see you can breathe comfortably (now try that with a blanket, coat or muslin).

Our fabric and design features match advice from The Lullaby Trust on safer sleep and pram coverings.

Every part is safe enough for a newborn

A product like SnoozeShade is only required by law to be safe enough for a three-year-old, because the product is actually being used by the parent, not the child.

But that isn't safe enough for Cara

Every SnoozeShade is designed to meet the same European regulations as a toy for a newborn baby – the highest standard possible – and our safety features include the following:

  • Short straps that pose no risk of strangulation or entrapment
  • Strong zips that won't break – even under heavy loads
  • Absolutely no toxic nasties in our fabric or any component
  • Non-flammable fabric

Making holidays easier

Cara initially designed SnoozeShade with her baby’s sleep in mind, but it turned out the fabric she so painstakingly invented had another incredible safety benefit: it blocks up to 99% of the sun’s harmful UV rays, protecting your baby’s delicate skin and eyes while you’re out and about or on holiday.

Sneak-a-peek zip

No product on earth can replace parental supervision to keep your baby safe.

That's why all SnoozeShade products feature a sneak-a-peek zip, so you can easily check on your sleeping beauty without letting in too much light and waking them.

"This shade is versatile and protects my baby granddaughter from the sun when in her pram especially at this time of year when the sun is low. The shade also helps with naps and excluding stimuli from lights in shops."

–Jennifer
Fabulous!

"I had the Original which I used with the carry cot and bought the SnoozeShade Plus to use with the buggy when we went on holiday. This worked great as I could roll down the top layer allowing little one to see (she doesn’t like being kept in the dark!) but still providing UV protection. Brilliant products. Would be great gifts for new parents of summer babies."

–Kim
Well worth it!

"This has been a game changer for helping our daughter nap whilst out, and protecting her from the sun. We absolutely love it and don't know what we did without it!"

–Robyn
Life saviour!

"Bought the SnoozeShade for our holiday and it was amazing – baby napped in the shade while we could enjoy the sun! Been using back home as well, it’s great for day naps when I’m out running errands. Thanks so much."

–Jodie
Couldn't be without it!

"Perfect for helping our little girl get to sleep in the pram who is usually very easily distracted and stimulated by light and noises! Since moving her out of her bassinet and into the next part of her pram, the SnoozeShade has been invaluable! Would definitely recommend :)"

–Lauren W.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Here you'll find Cara's answers to some of our most-received questions, but if there's anything else you'd like to know please reach out – we'd be delighted to help.

How does using SnoozeShade help my baby and I?

SnoozeShade is like a portable blackout blind for families on the go, allowing you to get out and about while still maintaining your baby’s sleep routine.

It’s the only baby sunshade of its kind to be endorsed by international baby-sleep experts, be approved by the Melanoma International Foundation, and to have won more than 80 awards – including Mother & Baby Gold for Innovation, Dadsnet Gold and Made for Mums Gold.

Until I invented SnoozeShade, the only option for parents was to throw makeshift items like blankets or muslins over the pushchair. These aren’t always made of air-permeable fabric, don’t provide sun protection and may simply fly off at the slightest breeze. You also have to lift them to check on your baby, letting in light that wakes them up.

• SnoozeShade becomes a ‘sleep trigger’ for babies – like a bedtime routine or closing the curtains in the nursery. Your baby starts to recognise that when SnoozeShade goes on, it’s time to sleep.

• SnoozeShade removes the external distractions that stop your baby getting to sleep. It creates a cosy, comfortable and healthy nap environment – wherever you are.

• Deeper, longer sleep with no interruptions means your baby gets the sleep they need – and we all know that a well-rested, happy baby means everyone in the family has an easier time!

• Many parents also use SnoozeShade to prevent well-meaning people from touching and disturbing their sleeping baby.

SnoozeShade & safety testing

I invented SnoozeShade to use with my own daughter, which means safety has always been my number one priority.

For me, safety comes first above all else, and I am proud that SnoozeShade is a ‘function over fashion’ product. I won’t compromise on safety and I put SnoozeShade through regular and rigorous safety testing – including tests that aren't compulsory. Head to our blog to find out more.

Why is SnoozeShade black, doesn't that attract heat?

The colour of a fabric has little to do with how hot it gets, but there are lots of great reasons why our fabric looks the way that it does:

• SnoozeShade is made from air-permeable mesh with lots of small holes that allow fresh air to circulate easily

• SnoozeShade’s fabric has been tested multiple times by well-respected, independent laboratories and scores highly for air permeability

• Black is the best colour for UV protection, as it blocks the most UV rays. This means our fabric doesn't need any chemical treatment

To find out more about how SnoozeShade’s fabric keeps your baby protected and happy, read this piece, which we wrote with the help of one of the UK’s leading thermal physicists to explain the science behind the 'colour and heat' question.

What is air-permeable fabric?

Our unique fabric is actually better than breathable. It's air permeable.

The term breathability is often used incorrectly. It's actually a term that refers to how well a fabric wicks moisture away from the skin, which is why it's often used to describe sportswear. Air permeability is all about how easily air moves through something.

A fabric that's ‘breathable’ is not necessarily air permeable. For your baby to be safe beneath a sunshade it MUST be made from air-permeable fabric. Avoid cheap copies and buy the safety-tested best.

I'm also proud to say that a new test for suffocation and CO2 rebreathing was developed and our mesh fabric passed both tests with flying colours!

What sun protection does SnoozeShade Plus provide?
SnoozeShade Plus can be used in shade mode to shield your child from 80% of UV rays while still allowing them to see out through the inner window, which is made from a single panel of our innovative mesh. In this mode, SnoozeShade Plus will also protect from wind, light rain and pesky insects.

When it’s time for a buggy nap, convert your SnoozeShade Plus to snooze mode by zipping up the outer panel (an extra layer of air-permeable mesh). This snooze panel covers the inner window to create a sleep-friendly environment that blurs distractions, shuts out 94% of light and blocks 99% of UV rays (UPF 50+).

While other sunshades claim to offer UPF50+ protection, many have transparent panels. This won’t offer the same level of sun protection, as UV rays can get in. Remember, if you can clearly see your baby through the fabric, so can the sun!

Our fabric is completely unique to us and has been independently scientifically tested, scoring highly for air permeability, which means air flows freely through it and your little one is completely safe underneath it.

Our clever child-safe zips allow you to check on your baby frequently without letting in too much light or exposing them to the sun.

Naptime freedom and
safe sun protection – just £35
