Adeline Shaughnessy, RN, APRN, PNP-BC
Adeline (“Addy”) grew up on the South Shore and has been working with kids for as long as she can remember.
She attended the University of Pennsylvania where she received her Bachelors of Science in Nursing and gained invaluable experience at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. She returned to Boston to start her career in Pediatrics as a nurse caring for critically ill children in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit at Boston Children's Hospital. Later, she moved to Connecticut for her husband's medical training and attended Yale University, ultimately obtaining a Masters of Science in Nursing and becoming an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN). For the next 7 years, she enjoyed working as a busy Pediatric APRN in Connecticut where she managed her own patient panel of both sick and well children aged newborn to young adults.
Addy and her family were thrilled to relocate to Massachusetts in 2025, and she is very excited to join the Beacon Pediatrics team. She brings with her years of experience in treating children and their families. She continues to enjoy working with children of all ages and feels privileged to be a part of their growth and journey to adulthood.
She currently lives in Hingham with her husband and two sons. She loves to spend time with her family, read, travel and go to the beach whenever possible. Addy and her family are embracing life on the South Shore, and she is honored to be able to care for the children of the community she grew up in.
