About Nancy:

Nancy grew up in Utah, and between the mountains, the changing seasons, the beautiful summers, and the joy of living close to family, she considers it the perfect place to call home. She began her nursing career at Primary Children’s Hospital, where she spent many years caring for critically ill children in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. After several years staying home with her family, she developed a deep interest in supporting mental health and pursued advanced training in psychiatric care. She is a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner who earned her Doctor of Nursing Practice from the University of Utah.

Nancy loves the resilience, honesty, and joy kids bring into appointments and is passionate about prevention, education, and partnering with parents to set a strong foundation for the future. Nancy has a special interest in ADHD and the role of parent training in improving outcomes. Her goal is to help children thrive and families feel seen, supported, and hopeful.

Outside of work, Nancy loves running and has her sights set on qualifying for the Boston Marathon. She enjoys traveling, and her favorite adventure so far has been a safari in Zambia. Nancy and her family enjoy football and proudly cheer for both BYU and Utah.

Parent Feedback

When I knew we were moving, I wanted to find a pediatricians office that I could trust and that would meet my families needs. The pediatricians office we were going to before was amazing and I wanted to find the same experience. We’ve only had one appointment so far, but I think I have found the experience I was looking for. The staff were friendly and helpful and willing to listen to concerns. Excited to continue working with WeeCare.
