Doulas for Twins & Multiples in Fresno, CA

Heather Kleinhans is a faith-driven wife and mother. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Speech and Hearing Science from Arizona State University in 2010 and has worked in the therapy world, building her specialized clinical skills through continued education and service in efforts to support pediatric clientele with orofacial myofunctional and feeding disorders. She worked as a Speech-Language Pathology Assistant (SLPA) in California for over 10 years, and in Arizona prior to that. Her passion was fueled by her own struggles with myofunctional and feeding disorders and her family’s experiences with delays and disorders. As a lifelong lover of learning and having seen firsthand how these delays and disorders impact quality of life for so many families, Heather continued her education and training as an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), Infant-Toddler Feeding and Tethered Oral Ties Specialist to support families during the beginning of their life journey. Observing there was still a gap in support for families, she also became a (FDD) Certified Faith Driven Childbirth Educator and Doula with additional specialized (NDA) NICU Doula training and (C-ND) Certification. She is also a (CBWS) Certified Babywearing Educator/Consultant. Heather specializes in supporting a range of specific support needs, including trauma-informed care, support of those who are Neurodivergent or Disabled, and customized support for those impacted by stays in the NICU or pregnancy and infant loss. Heather firmly believes that new and growing families deserve evidence-based education, resources and ongoing support during such a foundational and vulnerable season. She considers it a privilege to be a part of their team, helping to alleviate stress and allowing them time and support for healing, connection, joy and developmentally aligned support during this beautiful season.

Hello! My name is Jessica and I am excited to provide support for your family postpartum. I believe support is essential for families to thrive after the arrival of a new baby. As an educator, advocate, and supporter I will come alongside you and help you through this transition time with confidence and ease. I am a mother of four (including twins!) who loves to bake, read, and travel.

During my journey through early motherhood, I saw the struggles of myself and friends. I found a passion for helping others. While doing my training to become a postpartum doula, I realized I also loved learning about breastfeeding. This ignited a fire for me to complete the certification process to become a lactation consultant as well. I provide overnight support of newborns as well resources and education on various infant care topics. I also do in home lactation visits.
