[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also learned that if an au pair is sent home during the program by a complaint from her host family, she forfeits her fees. And if she chooses to leave her host family during the program, she has only 2 weeks to find a new host family or she is sent home, again forfeiting her fees. [/quote]If an au pair steals from a host family, abuses their children or gets drunk in the families' home in front of the children, the host family still has to host the au pair for those two weeks.  The host family also end up without childcare and in a major lurch.  [/quote]For the record, the family also loses a big chunk of their fees.

We had friends have an au pair show up from training school and after her 4 days to acclimate to the family (with no work) she declared she wanted to go home in two weeks.  She then used the two week period as a US vacation, partying with friends.  Turns out she had a boyfriend back home and never intended to stay.  She took the brand new iPhone they'd purchased for her with her. It cost them thousands of dollars and they had to scramble for back up childcare.[/quote]
