Other Au Pair Program Types
Extension Au Pair

Au Pairs have the option to extend for an additional 6, 9 or 12 months beyond their first year when they complete all of their required college credits. Au Pairs may either extend with their same Host Family or they may decide to transfer Host Families for their second year, which is called an Extension Transfer.  The decision to extend is not made until after the Au Pair's arrival. There is an additional education requirement during the extension year.

Transition Au Pair

For Host Families who need immediate child care, transition Au Pairs could be the solution. Transition Au Pairs have already arrived in the U.S. and need to change Host Families for the remaining time on their visa. Au Pairs will need to change families for a number of different reasons and goAUPAIR will only transition Au Pairs when no program rules, including safety concerns, have been broken.  View our available Transition Au Pairs.

Prematch Au Pair

When a Host Family knows the Au Pair they would like to bring to the U.S. outside of goAUPAIR, they are known as a prematch. In these situations, the Au Pair applies for the program through an International Agency in their home country and completes the same application as all Au Pairs. The same regulations for the Standard Au Pair program apply to prematches.


Contact goAUPAIR for the fees and discounts associated with the program types above.
