We appreciate our host families’ business and reward our families who repeat with us on an annual basis (with no more than a six month hiatus).
There is never an application fee and the $500 match processing fee is waived for all repeat families.
In addition, should you and your au pair choose to stay together for a second year, your program fee is substantially reduced.
Satisfied customers are always rewarded for referring another family to our program. Au Pair in America has the highest referral bonus in the industry.
Simply tell your friends about our program. Ask them to give your name as the referring family when they apply. When their au pair arrives, you will receive a $250 credit towards your next au pair contract.
Welcome Back Your Former Au Pair
Save $500 off your program fee if one of your former au pairs returns to your family.
Or, receive a $350 thank you if you refer your former au pair who is accepted by Au Pair in America and placed with another family.
How to Qualify
If you are in touch with former au pairs who would like to return: send us their contact information or complete the “Pre-match” section when submitting your next application. Please read below for important return au pair information.
Return Au Pairs
Au Pair in America initiated a request to change government regulations that previously restricted au pairs to a one-time cultural exchange option under the J-visa regulations. In July 2008 a new rule went into effect (62.31 (p) Repeat Participation) opening opportunity for former au pairs who meet the following criteria to apply as a “Return” au pair. Criteria for returning au pair is based on successful completion of her initial program, including her education component; is able to demonstrate she resided outside the U.S. for at least 2 years following completion of her initial program; is between 18 and 26 years of age; and is able to meet the other regulatory requirements of her application.
