Making San Francisco her home since the late 1980’s, Rowcliffe had the opportunity to work with many families including Danielle Steel. Through her supportive and loving hands-on education and organization, which incorporates a common sense approach, Rowcliffe ultimately nurtures and strengthens families. She is honoured to be called affectionately, “Mary Poppins” by many of her families The irony that her only child would die on the cusp of adulthood, after dedicating her life to raising other children, is beyond mystifying.
