The Switch is "okay". You can set a daily limit and an end time. As well as allowing or blocking titles. You can't set more granular sessions times, or even a start time. And "bedtime" cannot be earlier than 4pm. It's all a bit limited compared to Xbox from example, but it's okay. You control the times from a mobile app.
