For six years, Janvier worked at the Aidaphi association (Association Interdépartementale pour le Développement des Actions en faveur des Personnes Handicapées et Inadaptées) as technical adviser, where she negotiated financial resources with the relevant public authorities (regional health authorities, departmental councils), managed the association's law monitoring and followed the association's various establishments and services. She also worked as independent consultant for various consulting firms in the medical and social sector.
On 18 June 2017, Janvier was elected as the deputy to the National Assembly for Loiret's 2nd constituency, winning with 51.2% of the vote in the election's second round against former The Republicans deputy Serge Grouard.
