Love notes from Joyful parents!

Lisa Pizzi, founder of Growing Joyful, is the go-to person for advice when it comes to ANY parenting question.

Helping parents find their way to create a more joyful family experience.

Lisa has always been my go-to person for advice when it comes to ANY parenting question, large or small. To see her now bring this expansive and extremely relevant experience to fruition through the power of coaching feels like the perfect evolution of who she is as a human being. Not only does Lisa take the time to listen and really understand what others are going through, she brings positivity and encouragement into every conversation. Watching her parent with curiosity, soft yet firm boundaries, and ultimately pure love is sure to convince anyone in the first 30 seconds of meeting her that she will change your relationship with your children - forever.

Our family motto when we need advice about activities, nutrition, camps, and health for our family is ‘ask Lisa!’

Because of Lisa‘s experience in the Nicu with her own children, and her work as the Chair of the NICU Advisors board at the Brigham, I always trust her advice when it comes to the health of my child and any medically complex child questions.

Lisa is wise and down to earth; honest and non judgemental; and deeply caring. She has creative ideas to support connection and development, experience navigating the pediatric medical system, and a wealth of parenting insight. A gift to anyone looking for support in the area of parenting.

Lisa is amazing! She knows everything parenting and has given me the tools to become a better parent. I’m more patient, more engaged and less stressed with my kids now. We are all happier because of it!

I was really overwhelmed the first year as a mom. Lisa listened to me and gave me tactical pointers that I could implement immediately to improve my situation. I would recommend her to anyone!

When our second daughter, Alice, was born very prematurely at 27 weeks, Lisa was a lifeline for our family. She helped us navigate our three months in the NICU, and provided us with endless support and a myriad of (excellent) recommendations for preemie specialists (PTs, OTs, feeding, etc). Now, Alice is a healthy, thriving one-year-old, but we continue to rely on Lisa for parenting support for both of our daughters. She’s incredibly warm and knowledgeable, and she’s our go-to resource for all things parenting: she’s helping us navigate the school landscape, find fun, age-appropriate activities, tutors, and more. Working with Lisa has taken so much stress off our family’s plate, and we feel so lucky to have her in our corner.
— Sandy and Erin, Brookline, MA
The 12-week transformational parenting course with Lisa was the best gift I could have for myself, for my child, for my family. It infused space to think and evolve, and allowed me to reflect, learn and grow. Lisa is incredibly experienced and knowledgeable. Hers is a safe and kind space for the really important work you’ll do together. Lisa was an inspiring and knowledgeable guide on this journey and I would recommend her to anyone!
