Babyzen Yoyo accessories?

5 replies

Just got a Babyzen Yoyo for travel (and possibily use at home as well). Are there any accessories you would consider must haves? We are going to New Zealand summer where the sun can be quite strong even when not that warm but it can also be rainy and windy. Do we need an umbrella for extra shade or is the inbuilt shade good enough? I assume the raincover is a must have?

I have two prams. Large mountain off road, and babyzen. I have never needed a rain over in almost 3 years use.

I also find umbrellas a pain. I peg a thin muslin over the side sun is or at the top for an extra few cm shade. Not blocking whole thing and air ventilation

we bought the travel bag for baby zen. Used once. It’s a pain and bulky as goes in like rucksack and I usually have rucksack on anyway travelling with toddler. So we just use the thin cover bag that comes free With pram

The only thing we've ever used is the rain cover. My SIL had the parasol thing and they spend forever moving it and trying to reposition it. I just put a hat on my DS and wheel it out of the sun when I can.

Thanks for the advice! I'm probably overthinking this and don't need anything extra. I just remembered I also have a Snoozeshade which we could take for extra sun protection (brought last summer for my other pram but not used yet). Was always a bit nervous about using it as it's black (overheating etc). Still not sure about the rain cover and whether to get it for this trip since it is summer in theory while we are there. I also have an Uppababy Cruz which we use for off-road stuff but might also use the Yoyo around town here since we have a lot of narrow pavements.

I do like pram organisers that go on the handle bars though. Not at airport as need to remove to fold. But day to day away and at home. Any brand will fit both pram you have though so it’s just style preference on which one. Handy for baby/ toddler drink, snacks, wipes if not carrying main bag
