About me

​

Hi, I’m Charlotte

​

I’m a clinical nutritionist supporting women after the menopause and children who need a more individual approach to nutrition.

​

My work brings together clinical nutrition, my background in education and child development, and lived experience of raising a child with complex needs. Whether I’m working with women after the menopause or children and families, my aim is the same: to understand the wider picture and make nutrition feel practical and manageable in everyday life.

​

Supporting women after the menopause

My interest in women’s health grew from my own experience of a particularly unsettled perimenopause. I expected things to settle once it was over — they didn’t. My body felt different, and I had to work out what I needed in this next stage of life.

​

With focused nutrition and carefully chosen supplements, things gradually improved. That experience shapes the way I work with women who still don’t feel quite like themselves after the menopause — helping you understand ongoing changes in digestion, energy, sleep, mood and nutritional balance, and finding an approach that feels right for you now.

​

I hold a Diploma in Menopause Wellness Coaching, with additional training in areas including female health, vaginal microbiome health and recurrent UTIs.

​

Supporting children and families

My work with children grew from my background in education and from my own experience as a mum. I have an MA in Learning and Teaching and a PGCE, giving me a strong understanding of how children learn, communicate and cope with everyday demands.

​

Our eldest son has complex additional needs, and supporting him through autism, epilepsy, autoimmune encephalitis and significant health challenges has given me a very personal understanding of how complicated life can become for families.

​

It also led me to explore the role nutrition can play alongside other forms of support. I’ve since undertaken specialist training in autism, PANS and PANDAS, as well as further paediatric nutrition training.

I now work with families looking for a more individual, practical approach, particularly where neurodevelopmental or neuroimmune needs are part of the picture.

​

I understand that making changes for a child is very different from following a plan yourself. Food preferences, sensory sensitivities, routines and family life all matter. My role is to help parents identify what may be worth exploring, choose realistic priorities and make changes gradually and thoughtfully.

​

A personalised approach

My approach is evidence-informed, steady and practical, with a focus on what feels achievable in real life.

I don’t believe in testing for the sake of testing or giving you a long list of changes to make all at once. Where testing may provide useful additional insight, we can consider it as part of the bigger picture.

​

Ultimately, my aim is to make nutrition feel clearer, more manageable and more personal — whether I’m supporting a woman finding her balance after the menopause or a parent trying to work out how best to support their child.

Kind Words

I cannot recommend Charlotte at Pebble Nutrition highly enough. 

Her service is exceptional, and she is consistently available whenever I have a question or need guidance.

 

Dealing with hormonal imbalances and the unique nutritional needs of a neurodivergent child can be overwhelming, but she makes it feel manageable.

 

She has been really helpful and her approach is compassionate, knowledgeable, and highly effective. 

​

I feel so supported on this journey!

​

After 3 months of following the nutritional plan I can truly see a difference.
