Au pair extension & repeat programmes
A year-long stay as an au pair in the USA may sound like a very long time to some. To others, it's simply not enough time! That's why we give you the chance to extend your stay for up to 12 months or repeat your stay in the US at a later point for a reduced fee.
You would like to stay for longer? Extend your adventure as an au pair in America by 6, 9 or 12 months! You have the option to continue your stay with the same host family (if they agree) or apply with a new one for your extension period. You don't have to do without your travel month, because you can simply add it to your extension.
You have successfully completed your first au pair year in the USA and received a completion certificate from your agency? Then let's go on another adventure and save 200 € on the programme fees! You will have to have lived outside of the USA for at least two years after your last au pair experience to be eligible for the repeat programme.
