Individual user profiles have been a standard feature on Hulu and Netflix for some time. They’re useful for keeping watch-histories separate from friends and family members and can help viewers track their binge-watching progress without interruption. Kid accounts, unlike adult accounts, will only display child-friendly content without excessive violence or sexuality.

This process will likely take a few weeks, and once your account is ready, you can start your binge-watching immediately.
