Leigh Patten

Leigh began her journey in third-party parenting after emigrating to Canada and later relocating to the United States, where she launched her career in IVF and family-building. In 2007, she returned to the West Coast of Canada and joined a local IVF clinic, continuing her deep commitment to helping others create families.

Leigh is a proud mum to two children, Aaliyah and Sean, though she often jokes that “making babies” was her first love.

Before entering the world of fertility, Leigh completed culinary school and worked as a sous chef for several years. She still enjoys cooking in her downtime and, as a self-declared girlie-girl, loves to unwind with a bit of pampering on her days off.

Creating families isn’t just her career — it’s her life’s passion. Leigh believes that everyone deserves the opportunity to join the most ‘elite’ club in the world: parenthood.
