Early career
Born in Venlo, Janse began playing football with amateur team MVC '19 from Maasbree, the town where he grew up. When he became older, he began playing for the youth teams of VVV-Venlo, the biggest club in the city where he was born. He was soon spotted by PSV Eindhoven. In PSV's youth, he played as a right winger, but after taking the advice of skills- and talent coach Ricardo Moniz, he instead began playing as a right back. After playing great as a right back, PSV wanted to offer him a first team contract, but because of the presence of Kasper Bøgelund, Michael Lamey, André Ooijer and Michael Reiziger, he was advised to play somewhere else. Willem II showed their interest, and Janse decided to play in Tilburg.
Willem II
Janse was chosen to play for Willem II's first team at the beginning of the 2005–06 season.

Despite his good entrance in the Eredivisie for Willem II, it took a long time until he played again. Although, the 2006–07 season was marked as the great breakthrough of Janse. When his biggest competitor, Nuelson Wau, became injured, the road was paved for a fantastic season for Janse. Often he was the only bright spot for the chaos characterized club. Because of his good performances for Willem II, his competitor Wau eventually signed with Roda JC.
