Lisa Narchi, C.I.M.I.

Lisa Narchi is Operations Director at The UCLA Family Commons. She is also a certified infant massage instructor and a certified provider of both the Happiest Baby program (Harvey Karp, M.D.) and the Positive Parenting Program (PPP). She brings many years of experience with children and families, including infant massage instruction, prenatal and postnatal massage for mothers, teaching kindergarten, and working as a literacy specialist. She has worked in Germany, Puerto Rico, Seattle and Westwood.

Lisa enjoys traveling, learning foreign languages and connecting with people from different cultures. She hopes to raise a family of well-rounded and well-grounded global citizens who enjoy experiencing the world and giving back to others. As a new mother (son Camren was born July 30, 2009), Lisa is trying to learn to ask for help more… and to accept help graciously when it’s offered. She’s made peace with her habit of starting each day with one lovely, strong cup of coffee, and doesn’t expect to be giving that up any time soon.
