Netflix Kids is undoubtedly an attractive video streaming platform for children. It provides vast libraries full of entertainment with lots of TV shows, movies, and anime content. At the same time, it also has tons of adult and adult content, not appropriate for children to watch.
Fortunately, Netflix has impressive customer-centric features like parental controls that let you restrict adult content so kids can only watch age-appropriate videos. Learn more about how to set these parental controls with the steps below!
How to set parental controls
You can set parental controls with the Netflix app. However, if you want to take full control over adult content to keep your kids safe, use a web browser for more options.
Method #1: Create a new child profile
If you also have children at home, then you must use this feature. You can create a new user profile dedicated to children to restrict adult content by enabling a password on adult content.
- Open Netflix and “sign in” to your Netflix account.
- Click on “Manage profiles” in the upper right corner under the profile icon.
- Press “Add Profile”, enter your child’s name and check the box next to Child. Press “Continue”.
- Click on the profile icon of the children you just created and move to “Maturity Settings” press Edit.
- Enter your Netflix account password to complete the verification process.
- Select the age rating on the viewing restriction page for children created to profile TV-Y (6 years and under); TV-Y7 (7 years and under); TV-G/G (general audience); TV-PG/PG (Parental Guide)
In addition, you can activate the Netflix Kids Experience option, if you think that some inappropriate title may appear in front of their screen.
In such a case, just move the movie/TV show to “Under Title Restrictions”. You can enter the names of the movies/shows you don’t want your child to watch and press the “Save” button.

Method #2 – Keep a password for every Netflix user
Creating passwords for Netflix users is another great way to ensure that every user in the home watches appropriate and secure movies/TV shows. Parents will be the sole custodians of content protection.
It keeps kids away from viewing and accessing their parents’ or siblings’ profiles, playing games, and looking at each other’s viewing history.
You can also set a new password later if you don’t want your kids to use the Netflix experience independently. Here you will know how you can do it:
- Click on “Account” under the profile icon.
- Scroll down to the “Profile & Parental Controls” section
- Select a profile (for example, the name of the children’s profile is Emma)
- Click “Change” under “Profile Lock”.
- Enter your account password
- Create a new four-digit password
