(Kid nearby)
What to watch with a kid nearby
This is not “what should the kids watch”. It is the grown-up question of what you can have on while a child may wander through, without either bracing for a scene or defaulting to something you do not want.
The Kid Nearby lane ranks your Taste Profile toward titles that are safe-ish when a child may be around. Next Up says “safe-ish” deliberately: it is a filter on your own taste, not a rating system, and you make the final call. “Kid nearby” is also one of the moments you can pick in Quick Pick, and a kid context can be saved on your profile.

Questions people ask
- Is Kid Nearby a parental-control or age-rating feature?
- No. It is a lane that filters your own taste toward titles that are safe-ish with a child around. It does not replace ratings or your judgement.
- Can Next Up remember that kids are usually around?
- Yes — a kid context can be saved on your Taste Profile so the lanes and Quick Pick start from it.
- Does it work for something the child and I watch together?
- The lane is about what you would choose with a child present. Like and Skip let you steer it toward what actually works in your home.
