The Adventures Continue in 2026 …

Hip Kids Pediatrics is excited to welcome Tara Pierce, PNP, to our team in the new year!

Tara is a dedicated Pediatric Nurse Practitioner known for her compassionate approach to children’s health and her commitment to supporting families through every stage of childhood development. She brings over 15 years of experience in the Valley as a Pediatric Nurse Practitioner in pediatric primary care, as well as several years as a pediatric RN at Phoenix Children’s Hospital.

Tara blends strong clinical expertise with a warm, approachable style that puts young patients at ease and empowers parents with clear, thoughtful guidance. She is passionate about building long-term relationships with families and is driven by the belief that early, attentive healthcare lays the foundation for lifelong well-being.

Outside of work, Tara is the proud mother of two daughters, ages 12 and 14. She often draws on her own experiences as a parent to better understand the joys and challenges families face—from balancing busy school schedules to navigating the early teen years and celebrating important milestones. Her daughters remain her greatest inspiration and motivation to make a positive difference in the lives of the children and families she serves.

Please join us in welcoming Tara to the Hip Kids Pediatrics family!
