Quick answer

To replace the sunshade on your 2023 or earlier Mockingbird bassinet, remove the old shade, align the new Bassinet Sunshade Replacement, and snap it into place. The whole job takes about 5 minutes with no tools needed.

Why replace the sunshade?

Over time, sunshades can fade, stretch, or lose their shape, especially with frequent folding or direct sun exposure. Replacing the shade restores full UV protection and keeps your bassinet looking clean and well-maintained.

The Bassinet Sunshade Replacement is designed specifically for the original Mockingbird Bassinet from 2023 or earlier models. It matches the original fit and finish, so you don't have to worry about compatibility issues or awkward gaps.

Steps to replace your bassinet sunshade

  1. Remove the old sunshade: Unsnap the existing sunshade from the bassinet frame. Start at one corner and work your way around. The shade is attached with snap buttons along the top edge and sides. Do not pull too hard on the fabric, as the snap buttons can tear the material if you yank.
  2. Align the new sunshade: Hold the Bassinet Sunshade Replacement so the fabric curve matches the bassinet shape. Line up the snap buttons on the shade with the corresponding snaps on the bassinet frame. Double-check that the shade is not twisted before snapping. A twisted shade will leave gaps and not sit flat.
  3. Snap the new shade into place: Press each snap button firmly until you hear a click. Start at the center top, then move to the sides, and finish with the bottom corners. If a snap doesn't click, the button may be misaligned. Unsnap and reposition before pressing again.
  4. Test the fit and function: Gently pull the shade forward and back to ensure it moves smoothly and covers the bassinet evenly. Check that all snaps are secure and the fabric lies flat. If the shade feels loose or doesn't stay in place, recheck each snap. A properly installed shade should stay put even with light tugging.
