Nickelodeon Junior is a French 24-hour television channel broadcasting to France and Switzerland for a toddler audience. It is the French equivalent of Nick Jr., though with its French branding meeting domestic language policies, along with "Nick" sounding similar to a French profanity. The French language Belgium version is called simply Nick Jr. At launch, it used an ident package similar to the one used on the American Nick Jr. channel (months before the other international Nick Jr. feeds did so), although Moose and Zee were not present on the French version of the network.
