You have the option to extend for a further 6, 9 or 12 months. You can stay with your current host family or be considered for a placement with a new family elsewhere if you wish to experience living in a different part of America.

When you extend, you will continue the educational component of the program. Those on the Au Pair or Au Pair Extraordinaire program will receive a study allowance of up to US$250 for a 6-month extension and up to US$500 for a longer extension with their host family. Extend your stay and your American adventure!
