Nick Jr. Too (formerly Nick Jr. 2) is the British second channel of Nick Jr. available in the United Kingdom and in the Republic of Ireland, generally presenting popular Nick Jr. programming at other times of the day. It launched 24 April 2006, the same day as rival channel Cartoon Network Too. Nick Jr. Too carries a schedule separate from the main Nick Jr. channel. The channel was renamed to Nick Jr. Too in November 2014.
In August 2007, Nick Jr. Too was launched on Virgin Media. The channel launched an Irish feed in October 2013.
The channel has been rebranded 'Nick Jr. Peppa' on a number of occasions, where Peppa Pig is the only show broadcast, for a month at a time. This first occurred in October 2013, for two months, and again in April 2014 and October 2014. In October 2016, Nick Jr. Too rebranded as Nick Jr. Peppa after a years hiatus.
