Tim grew up and spent most of his childhood and adolescent years in East Africa. Seeing his parent’s work with the local schools and orphanage inspired him to purse a career working with children early on.
He enjoys working with children of all ages from newborns to adolescents, and he strives to build relationships with families to provide care that is holistic, evidence-based, and highly personalized to each child, while also taking into account the diverse cultural contexts of each family.
Tim is a pediatric nurse practitioner and he completed his training in pediatric primary care from Massachusetts General Hospital IHP, in Boston. He’s previously worked at a private practice, and currently has weekly rotations at a pediatric urgent care clinic. He is also a veteran, having served as a combat medic in the US Army.
When he’s not in the office, Tim enjoys spending time with his three energetic kiddos, his
wife, and exploring the great outdoors.
Tania grew up in Renton, where she discovered a love for circus arts as a teenager and went on to teach circus classes for children of all ages through Every Body Circus. It was through coaching and connecting with kids and families in her community that she found her calling in healthcare, a path guided by a deep belief in the power of movement, joy, and human connection.
Tania earned her Doctor of Nursing Practice as a Family Nurse Practitioner from Seattle University. Her clinical background includes outpatient primary care and prenatal services, with hands-on experience caring for patients from newborns through adulthood at a community health center. She is also a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and is currently pursuing her International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) credential.
Tania is passionate about meeting patients where they are and developing collaborative, individualized plans to help them achieve their health goals. She brings her whole self to every visit, and yes, that might include a wiggle or a groove! Outside of the clinic, she is a dancer in African diasporic dance, an experience that has deepened her appreciation for different cultures and strengthened her love of connecting with others through movement and storytelling.
Kim also lived in East Africa and first met Tim attending a boarding school together. She found her calling in nursing almost a decade ago, driven by a desire to bring joy and comfort to young patients and their families.
She’s honed her skills at several of the nation’s top children’s hospitals (Boston Children’s, Seattle Children’s, Randall, Dorenbecher) in the ED, surgical and oncology unit, while spreading smiles along the way.
With a holistic approach to care, Kim prioritizes building trusting relationships with patients and families while delivering evidence-based, compassionate care. Always ready with a hug or a high-five, she strives to make each visit a little brighter and a lot more fun for her patients and their loved ones! Outside of work, Kim enjoys reading, thrifting and spending quality time with her family.
