We know that keeping your little ones safe, comfortable, and happy will be paramount to you. When the weather gets warmer, and the sun’s rays are at their harshest, a parasol or sunshade is a great way to enhance coverage. When choosing a parasol/sunshade for a pushchair, there are a few different types to consider.
One popular option is a clamp-on parasol, which attaches to the pushchair's frame with a clamp. Typically adjustable, these tend to work with a selection of pushchairs. There are also canopy-type options that attach to a pushchair like a traditional hood. The best advice we can give is to check the specifications with your chosen pushchair.
Yes, parasols or sunshades can generally be used with any type of pushchair, but you should always double-check that they are compatible. Some pushchairs come with built-in sunshades, while others may have attachments or adapters available for separate parasols so be sure to assess what option relates to your product.
However, manufacturers create products with safety in mind so they will most likely always allow for a parasol or sunshade to be used.
As with any childcare accessory, caution must be exercised to ensure safety is always guaranteed. Even though sunshades and parasols actively enhance a child's comfort, they still offer some risks. These are easy to manage with some close attention.
Firstly, you must always ensure that the sun protector is securely fastened so it does not become loose in transit. Similarly, you should also ensure that the weight and load of the accessory do not limit the usage of the pushchair or pose a risk of the item falling.
You should also always check that the parasol or sunshade does not obstruct your view of the child or the road. Finally, we advise you to always check your little one to ensure the sunshade or parasol has stayed in a protective position as they could be exposed to sunlight without your realising.

It's normal for parasols and sunshades to get slightly grubby as dirt and debris are likely to attach themselves when travelling outside. The care methods will depend on the fabric, but usually, these accessories can be simply wiped clean. You will also find that sun damage doesn't impact these accessories, as they are designed to withstand the effects of UV damage. This means if you keep your item clean, it will serve you well for years.
Yes, you should. Although a hood or canopy can provide some level of sun protection, it will not be enough to offer effective shielding. By using a sunshade or canopy, you can completely cover the child so that no UV rays can creep into their seat.
The only aspect to be cautious of is ensuring the canopy or sunshade is still securely fastened if a hood is in place, as this could obstruct the fixings. To do this, ensure the safety steps are followed each time and test the stability before each usage.
