This is DIRECTV's horse in the skinny-bundle race, but don't let the legacy pay TV association fool you: DIRECTV Stream is very much a modern streaming service. The service offers channel bundles at different price points, so just find a bundle that appeals to you and get started streaming! For more on the service, check out our review of DIRECTV Stream.

Philo has made a splash on the skinny bundle scene by offering some of the lowest prices around. While it cuts back on the more expensive channels like ESPN, it does have channels like Nick Jr. The channel selection was one reason we gave this service high marks in our review of Philo.

Another great way to watch Nick Jr. online is fuboTV. This live TV streaming service is marketed to sports fans in particular, but it offers lots of great channels that have nothing whatsoever to do with feats of athletic prowess. To that end, subscribers will find a Nick Jr. livestream among their options with fuboTV.

Sling TV offers its subscribers the chance to customize their skinny bundle solutions. After choosing one (or both) of Sling TV's main base packages, subscribers can tack on smaller add-on bundles of channels grouped by category. The model involves a little more decision-making by subscribers, but the reward is a customized — and therefore highly cost-efficient — bundle of channels. To get a Nick Jr. livestream with Sling TV, just build a bundle that includes it!. Be sure to take a look at our review of Sling TV for more information.
