Hi I'm Terry Manrique an Expert Parent & Relationship Coach with 25+ years of experience in the field of Early Childhood Education. After working 17 years as a teacher and Program Director at a private, arts-integrated early childhood education center, I decided to start my business in April 2011 coaching families in their homes. as a successful owner of Working with Parents®, LLC, I helped countless families across the United States improve and transform their relationships using my C.P.R. for Parents® philosophy, a variety of parenting methods, and proven behavior management practices.

I'm an author of Revive Your Parenting, C.P.R. for Parents®, A Philosophy based on Compassion, Patience, and Respect and Change Your Perspective, Improve Your Parenting. My experience has allowed me to… provide parents with a crash course in Early Childhood Development, help parents better understand how their children think, and empowered them to be empathetic to what their child’s needs are. Understanding your child and knowing WHY they behave the way they do can eliminate the frustration many parents face.

I am a Gottman Certified Educator, Certified by Tony Robbins Team in Strategic Intervention-Relationship Coaching and Certified in Early Childhood Education. I continue to enrich my studies by keeping up-to-date with the ever-changing needs of children.

I also received my National Administrator Credential and trains Early Childhood teachers and parents on how to help children manage their emotions using my progressive techniques.

I conduct seminars for parents, teachers, colleges, and speaks for various organizations. I have built a working relationship with several physicians and schools in Columbus, Ohio, and the Chicagoland area.

Elina Greiff is an experienced
Conscious Parenting Coach and a Gottman Certified Educator

After working for over 20 years in the corporate world as an IT leader, coach and an emotional intelligence trainer, Elina realized that her passion was teaching and coaching parents on how to apply emotional intelligence concepts to parenting.

Elina coaches parents on how to uncover and replace their limiting beliefs with deeper self-awareness and more empowering, life-affirming beliefs.

Elina’s work incorporates the core principles of positive psychology, human motivation theories, child development research, and brain science. She believes that the sooner people learn emotional intelligence skills, the more fulfilling, meaningful and successful their lives will be. In order for parents to raise emotionally intelligent children, they have to be willing to learn those core principles themselves.

Parents who are more self-aware, can, in turn, help their children learn emotional awareness and self-regulation. Elina believes that when parents learn what it means to parent consciously – those ordinary, every-day moments of interaction between them and their children is where extraordinary lessons are learned and deeper connection is created.

Elina works with parents one-on-one as well as in group settings. In her work, she is employing research-based, proven strategies to teach and coach others on parenting with emotional intelligence. Elina’s passion is to help parents deeply understand and connect with their children and to restore creative collaboration, mutual respect, and joyfulness within the family home.
