The Protect-a-Bub line was born from the need of two moms confronted by the same problem -- how to protect their infants from the sun’s harmful rays. Australian native, Karen Clark-Dickson and New Yorker, Rachel Blakeman, both knew the hazards of childhood sun exposure, but could not find adequate protection for their babies. For Karen, the search began seven years ago and led her to invent Protect-a-Bub Sunshades. Fast forward to February 2003 when Rachel’s failure to locate sun protection products in the United States, led her to Karen’s Australian website. Shortly thereafter, these two moms partnered to bring Protect-a-Bub Sunshades worldwide.
According to the American Cancer Society, skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States, affecting over one million Americans every year. While sunscreens are available, many pediatricians do not recommend them for infants under six months.
Protect-a-Bub USAä is wholly owned and operated by mothers. Protect-a-Bub Sunshades are made from specially woven 50+ UPF-rated breathable fabrics, providing 98% -plus protection from the sun’s harmful rays. Protect-a-Bub Sunshades rate “Excellent”, the highest rating category available in accordance with globally recognized standards (A/NZ4399: 1996) for sun protective clothing. Protect-a-Bub Sunshades are available to fit all canopied strollers and joggers.
