Nick in Your Neighborhood
Welcome to “Nick in Your Neighborhood,” a video series showcasing local businesses and exploring hidden gems in the community. The series highlights the unique stories, services, and community impact of these notable assets in Allegheny County and reinforces my commitment to supporting small businesses as a key legislative priority in the Senate. By featuring entrepreneurs and their contributions to the local economy, “Nick in Your Neighborhood” aims to encourage local patronage, promote economic growth, support workforce development, and underscore the importance of small businesses in building strong, vibrant communities.

Joyful Commons

For this stop on “Nick in Your Neighborhood,” I visit Joyful Commons in Homestead, a one-of-a-kind coworking and play space designed with working parents in mind. Founded by entrepreneur and Pittsburgh mom Jade Granda, Joyful Commons was created from the realization that parents shouldn’t have to choose between raising a family and pursuing their goals.

Blending historic charm with a flexible, family-first design, Joyful Commons offers a space where parents can answer emails, hold meetings, or enjoy a cup of coffee while their children play safely nearby. Through every detail, Jade has woven together comfort, creativity, and peace of mind for busy families balancing parenthood and work.

In a world where spaces like this are still uncommon, Jade is creating a place where productivity and playtime have something in common.
