Return of Au Pair
If you have a nice au pair at your home, you never come to know when the year flies back. It seems like it was just couple of months back when that au pair arrived in your home. Also if you had warm relationships throughout year with them, you can always make their return special. In this article, we will take how a host mom made return of her au pair special.
This week, I heard from a host mom who was helping her au pair from Aupare Care fill out her paperwork for her return flight. This paperwork, like the extension application, is due to headquarters the first of the month before the Aupare Care program year ends, and allows her to choose her top choices for departure dates and cities. Thus, au pair is able to explore world better as they are not supposed to be tied to their duty and can enjoy a month long vacation. It gives them a chance to see other cities and places which will be helpful for them in case they return later on in their life.
Louisa and her host mom wondered if Louisa was allowed to say in the area after her year ended. Her plan was to stay with her host family for a week to visit friends, go on a trip for a week, and then come back to her host family home for a few days to sat her final goodbyes and pack. It would be a dream return for her as she would be able to do those things and visit those places which she could not when she was busy as au pair in our home.
I let them know that this was a fine arrangement - at the end of their year, au pairs are allowed to remain in the US for up to one month. This is a perfect time to travel and see sights they missed during their year. Louisa was thrilled for the chance to spend a little extra time with everyone she had grown to love during her year before returning home to school. She told me many times about her this wish of visiting other places in states which she liked and I am happy that I could finally make her wish come true.
Thus, it enabled a host mom to plan a special return for her au pair from Aupare Care as she always wanted.
