Nicole “Snooki” Polizzihopes to keep her kids away from seeing their mom onJersey Shorefor as long as possible.

Asked when she would feel comfortable with letting her kids watchJersey Shore, Polizzi, who shares daughter Giovanna, 7, and sons Lorenzo, 10, and Angelo, 3, with husband Jionni LaValle, firmly says “honestly, never.”

“Even if they’re 30, I’m like, I don’t want you watching that. It’s weird,” she admits.

“I mean, even now my kids are 10 and 8 and they’re on TikTok and they see old clips and stuff,” she shares. “So they’re like, ‘Mommy, what are you doing here?’ And I’m just like, ‘Mommy’s a paid actress. They made me do that.’ "

“So that’s my story as of right now until they’re older and then I’ll be like, ‘Yeah, I was crazy,’ " adds Polizzi.

Looking back at her time on the show, Polizzi says there are “definitely” parts of the show she views differently now that she’s a parent.

“Looking back as a mom, I’m like, crap, my kids might see this one day meeting their father at the club and then bringing him home,” she says. “You see us in bed. I hope they don’t see that stuff.”

As for life outside ofJersey Shore, the mom of three says she loves soaking up the little moments at home with her kids.

“I just love staying at home and relaxing on the couch and all watching a movie together,” she says. “I feel like in general, we’re so busy running around at school and sports and everything. So when we do have those moments where we’re all on the couch together as a family, just watching a movie, it’s my best time.”
