Leslie S (they/them) is a Doula Trainings International Trained Full Spectrum Doula, and a Certified Advanced Postpartum Doula (EDCD).

Leslie was born and raised in Los Angeles CA but has called the triangle home since 2014, where they live with their partner Marta and sweet hairless dog Scarlett. Leslie is new to the official postpartum doula world but is an old hat in the infant and child care game! They are so excited to be able to bring their years of experience caring for babies, children and families to Emerald Doulas. Leslie is dedicated to supporting families during the early stages of parenthood. They have a deep understanding of the physical, emotional, and logistical challenges that new parents face. Their passion lies in ensuring a smooth transition into parenthood, and firmly believe that every family deserves compassionate and non-judgmental support during this transformative time. When they aren’t caring for families and babies, they love moving their body in all sorts of ways, like dancing, hiking, and aerial silks!
