Nick Jr. is acable television channel inLatin America owned byParamount Skydance subsidiaryParamount Networks Americas based on the American television channelof the same name. The channel is aimed at a preschool audience.
Currently, the Nick Jr. channel features the same programming as the Nick Jr. block onNickelodeon, as well as some shows previously seen on the block, such asTeam Umizoomi andBubble Guppies.
The block was first introduced in the 1990s and early 2000s as a programming block airing onNickelodeon's Latin American channel. On July 1, 2008, Nick Jr. was launched as a channel in the region.
On September 19, 2023, Nick Jr. delocalised and started to use some assets from EMEAA.[1][2][3][4][5][6] This change also replaced end credits with short credits, indicating the show's name, production company and year, similar to the Nickelodeon channels in EMEAA. However, it is still retaining some localization, such as advertisements, localised text on selected trailers, and opt-outs for local programming, such as Os Chocolix in Brazil.[7]
On October 7, 2025, Paramount announced that it would close all of its channels in Brazil (including Nick Jr.) on December 31, 2025, due to high operational costs in the respective country, declining ratings for pay television in Brazil and the Brazilian pay TV crisis.[8]
