Here's an article from the Dutch Consulate that explains how to get a
copy of the birth records and who's allowed to do so.

Too bad I'm not an official answer-type person and therefore can't
collect for the answer. :)

The Dutch Embassies and Consulates abroad do not intermediate to get
certificates from the registry in the Netherlands ... Citizens living
abroad can mail in their request to the institutions listed below
http://www.netherlands-embassy.org/article.asp?articleref=AR00000131EN

City Hall of the municipality concerned. Find the municipality
concerned via:
http://www.overheid.nl/ 

For Heerjansden I think this would be Zuid-Holland, and for Dutch
speakers the website at
http://overheidsloket.overheid.nl/home.php?tab=?st_id=80&sub=thema&th_id=30&st_id=80
should be relevant.
