short program description	The au pair program is open to young people from any country. There are only different rules for EU/EEA/CH and the rest of the world. An au pair comes to the Netherlands for a maximum period of 1 year to learn about Dutch culture and society. An au pair stays with a host family and performs light domestic duties for a maximum of 8 hour per day or 30 hours per week in exchange for bed and board with the host family. If not indicated differently, quotes are taken from the Immigration Service.	The basic idea of a "working holiday" or "work and travel" is to finance holidays and travel, by taking on several short term jobs. Therefore, this program is not primarily intended for au pair jobs, but if the au pair is e.g. too old for to be an au pair, there might be a possibility provided, if he/she comes from one of the following countries: Canada Australia New Zealand South Korea If not indicated differently, quotes are taken from the Immigration Service.
