Memory management in C is very different than memory management in JavaScript, which throws exceptions when you try to access invalid memory, but will gladly let you create memory leaks inside event callbacks or other loops and keep chugging along gladly until it can't anymore. Writing a safe, efficient, high performing JavaScript app is very different than writing the same thing in C, and although I know both deeply well, I don't think learning C has helped me write better JS.
