According to Jani's biological mother each one of her handcrafted dolls had a spirit.
This led Jani to a career in puppetry and her ability to "bring them to life".
Jani trained with the late Jim Henson during the 1980's and went on to work on Follow that Bird, Jim Henson Hour and Fraggle Rock
Starting as a background performer Jani soon worked her way up to lead roles:
Grannie on The Mr. Dress-Up Show,
Sasha on Prairie Berrie Pie,
Seeka on Wumpa's World (Gemini Award)
Lili on Little Star (and the voice of Little Star)
Pa Foley on the award winning series Big Comfy Couch

"I will never forget the first time I got fan mail for Grannie on the Mr. Dress Up Show. Those are the kind of rewards that put life in a great perspective". Jani Lauzon
