Sophie Morel
A graduate in nutrition from the Université de Montréal and holder of a certificate from the IBLCE, Sophie has been involved in community work since 2011. After starting her career as a nutritionist in a CLSC with a multi-ethnic adult clientele, she turned to perinatal care. She is currently completing a certificate in administration.
Following the birth of her first child, she discovered a passion for breastfeeding, baby feeding and carrying. After her second pregnancy, she became involved with Nourri-Source Montreal as a volunteer, before working as a project manager. Her personal and professional experiences allow her to have a global vision of the organization and the issues surrounding breastfeeding.
Since December 2020, she holds the position of Executive Director, all the while training breastfeeding mentors and participating in breastfeeding clinics as a lactation consultant. As Director, she is responsible for coordinating the work of the team, representing Nourri-Source Montreal to institutional and community partners, and ensuring the development and sustainability of the organization for the coming years.

Aurélie Doyen
Aurélie holds a degree in Food and Agriculture Engineering with a background in nutrition and health. She has more than eight years of experience in project development and marketing/communication.
As a young mother, sociable and considerate, she naturally turned to the community sector, touching on nutrition, health and on providing support to young mothers.
As a development officer, Aurélie's mandate is to consolidate and develop Nourri-Source Montreal's services on the island of Montreal. She liaises with community partners and Integrated Health and Social Services University Networks (CIUSSS for its acronym in French) in the city while supporting mentors in their role as volunteers for their sector.

Marie-Claude Biron
Marie-Claude has a far-reaching training and expertise. Her first career was as an audiologist for the rehabilitation for young children with hearing loss. Afterwards, she spent more than 20 years as a senior webmaster, creating about a hundred websites for various fields.
Then, at the dawn of her fifties, her interest in perinatal intervention was born. She subsequently followed various training courses and completed a degree in perinatal psychology at UQAM.

Ellie Nash
Having studied political science, international development and business administration, Ellie's career path is naturally a mosaic. Prior to coming to Montreal, she worked in elementary education in disadvantaged areas in Texas and in promoting childhood immunization in rural India. More recently, Ellie has been supporting newly arrived immigrants in Montreal.
With the birth of her daughter in May 2019, Ellie felt an immediate sense of solidarity with past, present and future mothers. Becoming a mentor seemed like a perfect way to do this. She joined the first cohort of pandemic-trained mentors in June 2020.
As Development and Liaison Officer, Ellie's mandate is to consolidate and develop Nourri-Source Montreal's services throughout the island of Montreal. She liaises with community partners and the Integrated Health and Social Services University Network (CIUSSS for its acronym in French) in the city while supporting mentors in their role as volunteers for their sector.
