Hi! I'm Yiska Obadia.
I've been a bodyworker for nearly 30 years. After attending my first birth in 2001, I became a doula and eventually created Comforting Touch classes for doulas and expectant parents after realizing how much I could offer from my collective experiences working with thousands of pregnant, postpartum and birth doula clients over the years. Making touch more accessible, comfortable, sustainable, and supportive has become one of my life's greatest passions; offering doulas, midwives, birth educators, pregnant people and their perinatal counterparts the insights and skills they need to share Comforting Touch with confidence.
Why Choose This Program?
The Comforting Touch Client Toolkit is tailored for birth professionals who want to offer more to their clients. Created by Yiska Obadia, a bodyworker and doula with decades of experience, this program provides easy-to-follow techniques that help partners feel capable and prepared to offer hands-on support during labor.
More than this, it's an opportunity to distinguish your services from other doulas, midwives, and perinatal professionals. By offering a unique, touch-focused approach, you'll attract more clients and increase satisfaction—all while ensuring your clients have the tools they need for a positive birth experience.
FAQ
What's included in the on-demand partner's class?
The class covers a clear explanation of the gate control theory of pain, as well as other principles of Comforting Touch designed to improve partner's support skills and boost confidence, especially during labor. They will learn counter-pressure techniques, like the hip squeeze (taught with my signature sustainability approach) as well as techniques for back labor support. They will also learn massage and other relaxation techniques and understand what to do (and not do), and when, as well as how to modify for different positions throughout labor. The class even covers a bit about pelvic balancing as it relates to optimal fetal positioning, reinforcing the significance of this component of pregnancy and birth.
Does it matter how many clients I have?
No. You'll have unlimited access to share it with all of your personal clients for the full length of your yearly subscription.
Do you just send me an access link when I sign up?
Yep! You'll receive an email after purchase with your personal access code to pass along to your clients whenever and however you wish. You can also promote this value-added resource in your marketing.
What happens at the end of my year subscription?
You will have an opportunity to renew and receive a new access code for the following year. Though you will likely want to renew, you are under no obligation to do so. At check out you will find options for a one-time purchase, or subscription which is set to auto-renew unless you cancel.
What about my clients who are un-partnered?
While much of the content is geared toward couples, your single clients may wish to watch and practice with a friend or family member, and will benefit from the parts of the toolkit that offer self-applied comfort measures, and baby massage.
Can I sell this to my clients for a profit?
Yes, and I encourage it! For example, if you charge an extra $100 per client for a service package that includes this resource for 20 clients, you'd earn $2000 for your $299 investment! I do suggest including the cost in your fee structure to encourage clients to see it as an integral part of their program with you, rather than as an optional add-on, but apart from this recommendation, I'm in full support of this contributing to your revenue growth.

"Last night Jacob told me it felt so good to know what to do and have the skills to help me. It's funny that sometimes that need isn't necessarily articulated or felt clearly but after the fact, it's like, hey wait a minute, I'm SO glad I know that now. You are a wonderful teacher!"
Jessie, New Mother
"Your massage techniques were so helpful while I labored. Chris did an excellent job supporting me. We relied heavily on what we had learned in class and felt confident throughout the process allowing love and joy to shine throughout the process."

"I would not have known what to do were it not for your videos. Ultimately you were able to distill in 15 minutes what enabled us to have a really successful 3 hours. And I'm grateful."
