Click here to take our quick quiz to see which SnoozeShade for strollers you need!
How does SnoozeShade Plus Extra work? SnoozeShade creates a comfortingly dark space that encourages naps by boosting melatonin and blurring distractions. When your baby 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. Use it in snooze mode or shade mode – both provide UV protection.
What is the shade mode? SnoozeShade Plus Extra can be used in shade mode to shield your child from up to 80% of UV rays while allowing them to see out. Simply zip up the inner window – a single panel of our unique mesh – to protect from sun, wind, light rain and insects. The shade panel has two zips, so you can leave it partially or fully open or close it completely for maximum protection.
What is the snooze mode? When it’s time for a stroller nap, convert SnoozeShade Plus Extra to snooze mode by zipping up the shade panel and securing the outer snooze panel (an extra layer of mesh) using our baby-safe poppers. This creates a sleep-friendly environment that blurs distractions, shuts out 94% of light and blocks 97.5% of UV rays (UPF 40+).
A sleeping-baby emblem deters people from disturbing your child, while the sneak-a-peek zip lets you check on them without letting in too much light.
When the snooze and/or shade panels are not in use, simply roll them up and store them in the integrated front pocket to stop them snagging on your wheels.
Will SnoozeShade Plus Extra help my child nap? When in snooze mode, SnoozeShade acts like a portable blackout blind to create a sleep-friendly space. It’s recommended by baby-sleep experts worldwide because when used regularly it becomes a sleep cue for your child, helping them learn when it’s naptime in the same way shutting the curtains at home does.
What age is it for? We recommend SnoozeShade Plus Extra for babies and toddlers who are seated in the stroller seat, because it’s proportioned to fit around a child who is sitting up and wanting to see out. We say from around 6-9 months but it's just a guide - the most important thing is baby's seating position. If you’re looking for a SnoozeShade for a baby who's in a carrycot, SnoozeShade Original will be a better fit.
You can continue using your SnoozeShade Plus Extra as long as your child is in their stroller. Our founder, Cara, still used hers occasionally when her daughter was five!
Is it machine-washable? Of course – it was invented by a mum! All SnoozeShades are machine washable at 30° and can be tumble dried on low heat.
Will it fit my stroller? Yes! SnoozeShades are all universally sized and fit all single-width strollers and strollers with a hood, including jogging strollers. We’ve even seen them used on Thule bike trailers and festival trolleys!
You don’t need to worry about the type of stroller you have; simply choose the SnoozeShade that suits the age of your child.
How does it attach to my stroller? SnoozeShade Plus Extra attaches to absolutely any stroller or stroller in seconds. The soft mesh, elasticated sides, stretchy straps and baby-safe poppers make it effortless to fit. Here are our top tips:
- SnoozeShade Plus 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.
- Attach the straps to the frame of your stroller or through any gap you find (hood hinges are ideal). They can also be attached to each other around the back of (or under) the stroller. It’s fine to stretch the straps – they’re designed to extend as needed.
- Pull the hood of the stroller forward at least halfway before attaching the top straps. Your SnoozeShade will then sit lower at the front and will be easier to attach at the bottom.
As this is a new product we are still finalising instruction videos but you can use the fitting instructions for SnoozeShade Plus Deluxe here. If you need any personalised advice on fitting or using it, please get in touch.
Do I need to leave it on my stroller all the time? No, SnoozeShade Plus Extra is super lightweight and packs down into a storage bag (free with every order) that’s compact enough to pop into your change bag or stroller 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 stroller. 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 worldwide safety standards. Our fabric is not chemically treated, and every component is safe enough for a newborn, including our zips, straps and poppers.
SnoozeShade is the only range of sun and sleep shades to be approved by the INPAA (Infant & Nursery Products Alliance of Australia).
The Snooze Shade was easy to fit. It protects my bub from the sun (main reason for purchasing) and helps baby to drift off to sleep faster in the pram. Really impressed with the quality for the price of this product.
Best purchase just wish Id discovered this sooner. Perfect for keeping my active little bean out of the sun and fits on both our regular pram and travel pram.
Hi Amanda! Thank you for your review. We're so happy to hear that you're loving your SnoozeShade Plus. We're glad it's keeping your little one protected from the sun. Best wishes. Gaynor x
This cover certainly has extended the time our 15 month old sleeps in the pram ! It’s fabulous. Thank you
Very versatile. I have a range of different prams since I have a newborn and a toddler. The shade fits the bassinet and allows for adequate airflow for my newborn to sleep during walks in the sun. It also fits my baby jogger mini city zip that has a very large shade canopy as well
This is an excellent sunshade.
