Notice: Nesrine is taking some time with her growing family and does not have availability for new clients right now, but we can’t wait to welcome her back.

Nesrine was determined to be a dietitian ever since she gained her passion for nutrition and health when she was 11 years old. She comes from a family of health professionals consisting of doctors and pharmacists, but always knew she wanted to be involved in disease prevention. Nesrine was diagnosed with an autoimmune digestive disease at a young age and dealt with many nutrition-related issues. Through her personal experiences, she gained more knowledge, experience and drive to help others heal using food as a form of therapy. 

Being a mother of a young toddler, she has also become dedicated to helping other parents learn the best approaches to nourishing their children at a pace that works for them.

Nesrine completed her nutrition degrees at Brescia University College, with a Bachelor of Science in Food and Nutrition, Post-Degree Diploma and Master’s degree. She has also obtained her credentials as a Certified Diabetes Educator. As a lifelong learner, she strives to be on top of the latest research and articles relating to nutrition and physical activity to confidently answer her clients’ questions. Nesrine genuinely cares about each and every one of her clients and uses a tailored and individualized approach to nutrition counselling. She also believes every person has unique nutrition needs and deserves to be heard and respected in order to be successful with their goals.

Working with Nav has been a genuinely transformative experience. I first came to her feeling frustrated by weight gain and overwhelmed by a bunch of unclear symptoms. From day one, her approach was solid, structured, and evidence-based. ​The results speak for themselves: I lost over 7 kg in just 6 weeks—all while actually eating more calories. Nav customized a nutrition plan tailored specifically to my food preferences, cravings, and daily habits. Instead of just telling me what to eat, she educated me on the fundamentals so I truly understood the "why" behind every decision. ​Nav’s care and follow-up stand out above everything else. She meticulously reviewed my food logs, addressed holistic health aspects, and made every check-in feel authentic, solution-centric, and encouraging. Scheduling was seamless throughout. I built a strong bond of trust with her and highly recommend Nav to anyone looking for expert, compassionate nutritional guidance! - via Google, September 2026

I’ve had a very positive experience working with my (dietitian). She (Sarah) has been extremely supportive, understanding, and non-judgmental throughout the process. What I appreciate most is that she doesn’t use a one-size-fits-all approach, she takes the time to understand my individual needs, health concerns, lifestyle, and challenges, and builds the plan around them. She is also very flexible and willing to adapt or change the plan based on what is working for me and what isn’t. I feel heard and supported rather than pressured, which has made the whole process much more manageable and realistic. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for personalized and compassionate nutrition support - via Google, August 2026

Nav has honestly been amazing! She is supportive, honest and works with you to develop the best plan to meet your goals! With her help of getting me on the right track with my meal planning and vitamins I have lost over 40 pounds in 6 months! I feel and look amazing and I no longer get winded when walking up the stairs. Nav’s supportive nature is unmatched and I know that I can achieve any goal I have. I remember when we started I said I want to lose 20 lbs - and when I did that, I was like that was easy, what else’s can I do! Looking forward to the next steps! Thanks Nav! - via Google, August 2026
