Meet the Mother of the Nest..

About Charlotte

Charlotte is a caring and compassionate mother of two, born and raised in Australia, with over 20 years of experience working with children and families.

She is a certified meditation teacher, mindfulness coach, and wellness author, holding a Bachelor of Education and a Certificate III in Childhood Development.

Having recently returned to Australia, Charlotte is now combining her years of wellbeing experience with her current role as a primary school teacher (Grade 1/2) on the Mornington Peninsula to offer tutoring sessions that nurture the whole child — emotionally, socially, and academically.

Charlotte specialises in making mindfulness and meditation practices engaging and accessible for children and families at all stages of life. Her approach is grounded in emotional intelligence, child development, and a deep belief in the power of calm, connected learning.

In 2019, she opened The Happinest NYC studio in Brooklyn, New York, which ran until 2020. In 2022, she launched The Nest LA, a beautiful indoor/outdoor studio space in Los Angeles (90027), offering a weekly schedule of mindfulness-based classes for parents and children of all ages.

While her global offerings continue virtually, her heart now lies in her home country, where she is passionate about supporting young learners through her unique, integrative tutoring model on the Mornington Peninsula.
