SnoozeShade, the UK’s first universal blackout buggy blind, can help.

SnoozeShadeTM is a unique blackout blind for prams, carrycots, pushchairs and buggies (in flat-lying or upright modes). This innovative baby sleep product was created by a British mother specifically to help babies and toddlers sleep for as long as needed in a pram or pushchair.

It’s what mums have been waiting for – a simpler, safer, lightweight and secure alternative to a draped coat or blankets – and, above all, it works.

It’s the UK’s first sleeping-on-the-go solution for babies and is great for holidays, in restaurants or anytime you have to go out during baby’s naptime.

When sleep time is over, just pop it away into its storage bag. SnoozeShade is small enough to hang off pram handles or leave in your change bag, handbag or buggy basket so you keep it with you to use when you need it.

With UPF50+ sun protection, SnoozeShade can be used all year round whatever the weather and it fits under most standard rain covers on a rainy day. Its patent-pending design shuts out the world to keep sleeping babies asleep in their prams or pushchairs, helping alert babies switch off enough to fall asleep.

It’s simple and easy to check on your sleeping baby using the ‘sneak-a-peek’ zip at the front.

  • Made from a double layer of soft dark breathable fabric, SnoozeShade provides a shady and well-ventilated sleep environment.
  • Elasticated top and sides with easy-to-attach Velcro straps ensure SnoozeShade fits easily to most popular prams and pushchairs
  • Check quietly and easily on baby with SnoozeShade’s ‘sneak-a-peek’ front access.
  • Compact enough to keep with you at all times; it folds into a small drawstring bag to pop ito n your change bag, handbag hang off buggy handles or store in your pushchair’s basket.
  • Fits easily under most standard rain covers.
  • Protects babies from the sun with the highest sun protection – UPF50+
  • Tested to all current British and European safety standards
  • High visibility seams and straps – useful if you’re out on darker days and at night
