Catherine Van der Woude

Catherine is a happily married mum of three beautiful kids. She was a registered nurse for over fifteen years. After leaving work to focus on her young family, she turned her hand at other things such as medico-legal transcription and candle making. Time off had her contemplating what her true dream was, and she discovered what she already knew deep down that she loved writing. She has a collection of poetry saved on scraps of paper around her house and in the deep recesses of her laptop, only read to her family. Her true passion though is writing silly children’s rhymes, considering she has Peter Pan like qualities. When she’s not writing, you’ll find her dancing and singing in the lounge with a mega pint of crisp dry white in her hand.
