Help your baby sleep better SAFELY

SnoozeShade for PacknPlays is like a sleep tent for your babys playard and is ideal for when you share a room with baby. Use it day or night, its perfect for trips away from home, camping, vacation or during bright summer months (many Alaskan parents have found it particularly useful!). It also gives protection from mosquitos and cats.

Adjust darkness levels to suit your baby by using the side panels that can be raised or lowered. Or you can open or close the zippable top flap (which can be stored in the integrated pocket).

Other playard covers are available, but none of them are as safe as SnoozeShade. Your babys safety is at the forefront of our design and Cara has gone to extra lengths and cost to ensure her products are as safe as they can possibly be.

This is the question we get asked the most...

It takes seconds to install

SnoozeShade for PacknPlays is so easy to use. There are no poles to connect or any complicated attachments. Simply throw it over the top of the playard, pack n play or mini crib - pull down around the sides and attach the bottom stretchable straps securely around the playards feet.

Youre done! It weighs just 2lb and easily fits in a carry on.

SnoozeShade was invented by a parent just like you!

The first SnoozeShade (for strollers) was invented by British mom Cara Sayer when she became frustrated with throwing a blanket over her daughters stroller. She couldnt find anything that helped her little one sleep when they were out.

In 2010, she invented SnoozeShade Original for her babys bassinet and this grew into a range of baby sun and sleep shades for the infant car seat, stroller and packnplays, mini cribs and travel cribs.

Is it 100% blackout?

We are often asked if its completely blackout - the answer is no. It wouldnt be possible for the fabric to be air-permeable and block all light - but it does block 94% of light. Some parents have held it up to the light and think it doesnt look dark enough - but believe me it blocks 94% of light (its been tested multiple times) and weve had many tens of thousands of baby nap avoiders give in to the power of a SnoozeShade.

The main reason why babies, who usually need complete blackout, do sleep with a SnoozeShade is because the fabric blurs visual stimuli to such an extent that babies are bored back to sleep. It also makes it dark enough for the production of melatonin to occur which is natures signal that its time to snooze.

• My baby is standing? Can I still use it?

The answer is - it depends on your little one. We have parents still happily using our packnplay blackout cover once their child is standing. Weve had other smaller children show their disapproval of not being able to march around their playard. It very much depends on the individual child. Its not unsafe to use it as your child gets bigger and many little ones like the feeling of a den that they get. We always suggest you try it and see how you get on.

Let baby get used to it

If you plan to use SnoozeShade away from home, we suggest that (if you can) you use it practice with it at home first. Most babies are fine but you may find your little one adapts easier to it if used at home before a trip rather than if used for the first time in a strange environment.

• Award-winning and run by real moms

The business is run by Cara and a small group of moms. We all know what it feels like when you need an answer about something you are buying for your baby. We really take customer care seriously and every message is answered by a real person - we genuinely want you to be happy with your SnoozeShade.
