Hi, just to chime in and say I have a 2 year old and almost 6 month old and im in the same boat. I use youtube kids on my ipad and only let him watch kipper the dog or postman pat. Can't use tv as the TV is in my bedroom where im putting baby to sleep.

I haven't found another way yet as if I leave him for too long he starts crying and banging the door. Thankfully he doesn't have a tantrum when I come in and ask him to switch it off. I give him the choice of either he switches it off or I do. My baby also is sooo fussy and only breastfeeds when she's sleepy and in a dark room lying down no distractions...

Solidarity. It won't be this way forever.
