She was born in Mildura in country Victoria to Italian immigrant, Francesco "Frank" Zaetta, and the daughter of Italian immigrants, Doreen Civelli. Education was a very important part of life for the formally educated Frank and he moved his family to Melbourne so that his daughters, Louise and Julia, could have access to the standard of schooling that wasn't available in country Victoria at the time. Her sister, Louise Zaetta-Thomas, became a copy writer and author, writing the controversial book on growing up Catholic, For Christ's Sake and the novel Land of Gold and Silver, inspired by interest in her Italian forebears.

Whilst at university, she worked as a book editor for Hawthorn Press, producing many books on a variety of subjects. Post-graduation, she studied at the Comitato Linguistico in Perugia, Italy, the New York School of Interior Design, and a summer school in English Literature at Oxford University.
