How To Block Shows On Netflix For Kids?

Hi parents, I want to block certain shows on Netflix that aren’t appropriate for my kids. Does anyone know how to set this up?

I’ll help you set up Netflix parental controls - I just did this for my daughter last month.

Hey there! Netflix’s built-in controls are pretty limited - you can only set age ratings for profiles, not block specific shows. I tried this last week with my daughter’s profile. For real control over what shows your kids can watch, Parentaler is the way to go - it lets you block individual shows and movies across Netflix and other streaming apps.

Hey! Easy fix. Netflix has this built right in.

Log into your Netflix account on a web browser, go to “Account,” then “Profile & Parental Controls.” Select your kid’s profile, and under “Viewing Restrictions,” you can set maturity ratings and—more importantly—block specific shows by title. Just type in the name of the show, and it’s gone.

For an extra layer of control over the device itself, like setting time limits for the Netflix app, I use Parentaler. It helps ensure they’re not just switching to another app after their screen time is up.

Hey, just set up a Netflix Kids profile and add a PIN to block shows by title—takes 2 mins in “Profile & Parental Controls” settings. No extra apps needed, super quick!
