Nicole Herberger

RN, MSN, FNP-BC
Family Nurse Practitioner | Holistic Pediatric & Family Wellness

Hi, I’m Nicole—a Family Nurse Practitioner with a passion for holistic, relationship-centered care and empowering families through education, choice, and integrative options. I bring nearly two decades of experience across hospital systems, NICU and CICU units, allergy and immunology clinics, regenerative medicine, and pediatrics. Today, I feel most aligned supporting families on their journey to wellness—especially when navigating chronic and complex conditions.

My clinical interests include eczema, gut health, pediatric immune dysfunction, shared, informed decision-making, and functional approaches to chronic symptoms. I offer a non-judgmental, whole-person perspective—rooted in both science and intuition—so families can make informed, empowered decisions that reflect their values and goals. I believe no one knows a child better than their parent, and I honor that truth in every visit.

My background includes years in high-acuity environments—like the Cardiac ICU at Children’s National Hospital—where I cared for critically ill infants and children. I’ve also worked in newborn care (NICU), allergy and asthma clinics, and regenerative medicine, giving me a wide lens on how early-life and environmental factors shape long-term health. Today, I weave that experience into a more personalized, integrative pediatric practice that emphasizes prevention, root-cause healing, and trust.

I’m a board-certified FNP through the ANCC and hold advanced training in pediatrics, family health, and functional wellness. I’m also passionate about supporting parents—especially those feeling dismissed, overwhelmed, or seeking alternatives to the “one-size-fits-all” model of care.

When I’m not in the clinic, I love spending time with my family, staying active, reading, and recharging in nature. It’s an honor to walk alongside families—whether supporting a baby’s first year, unraveling gut-skin-immune issues, or simply being a listening ear. I’m so glad you’re here.
