About the Coaches

Just two Oradell Moms who love cheerleading! For the last several years, Janine Caruso and Nicole Lewandowski have been coaching the Oradell Mini Cheerleaders because of their love for the sport. Only in the last year, did they have children eligible to cheer in the program. The goal was to expose all athletes who are interested in the sport  to a fun and engaging entry into the world of cheerleading, while building self confidence and team unity. We hope that we can foster the love of cheerleading in everyone.

​

Nicole has grown up cheering, she cheered at every level as well as competitively.  Nicole cheered at Ramapo High School and Seton Hall University. While in school Nicole coached and was able to build a competitive cheerleading program in her hometown. 

​

Janine landed in the sport of cheer after a highly successful and competitive career as a gymnast. Janine cheered at the famous Trinity Valley College for two years and graduated from Louisville. She has coached several youth programs in the area as well as supports local teams with their routines.

​

While combined Nicole and Janine have a tremendous amount of cheer experience, the Oradell Mini Cheer program could not run without the support from the RiverDell High School Cheerleaders. We greatly appreciate their support and commitment to our program and look forward to the continued partnership with them!
