Amanda Aalto

Hi everyone! My name is Amanda and I am applying to be a Play Coordinator. As you can see from my photo I've always enjoyed a good time. Having been part of the Week 2 Thursday Group this entire year has been incredibly rewarding. I always look forward to playing with the kids at the Hospital as it is clear that it makes a big difference in their hospital stay. I have consistently been able to attend sessions and would be more than honored to take on a more active role in this community. I hope to become a paediatrician and this is one of the things I do that only further solidifies my desire to make a direct positive impact in kids' lives. I am not afraid to ask the nurses and families which kids would enjoy playing with our team and don't mind fighting with closet keys... I am more than willing to take feedback and make improvements where I am able. Let's work together to make some of these families scariest times a little more bearable or even enjoyable!
