To use parental controls you have to add a child account. Go to account.microsoft.com/family to create a child account.

Manage child account:

After creating a child account, click the account name and select Manage family settings online.  You can access the child account. In this section, you can apply controls. Scroll down that showing you the information of Web browsing, Apps and games and Screen time.

Control web browsing:
