Garrett was born in Darwin, Northern Territory and grew up in Brisbane.

Garrett is the niece of Midnight Oil frontman turned politician and Cabinet Minister, Peter Garrett.

Garrett was discovered in 2005 when she auditioned to be a new presenter on Channel V's Fresh Meat competition. She was one of four people selected from nearly 2500 who auditioned Australia-wide. Although she didn't win the competition, she managed to land an audition to present the second series of Camp Orange on Nickelodeon by invading the office of the General Manager of Nickelodeon and putting a post-it note saying 'My Name is Maude, Give Me a Job' on the computer screen.

Garrett worked for Nickelodeon from 2006. She was a Celebrity Burp Judge for the Nickelodeon Australian Kids' Choice Awards in 2006, and co-hosted the Orange Carpet opening of the Awards in 2007 and 2008.

In 2007, Garrett accepted the awards on stage for Most Outstanding Children's Program and Most Outstanding Event at the ASTRA Awards which were won for Camp Orange: The Mystery of Spaghetti Creek and the Nickelodeon Australian Kids Choice Awards 07. She was nominated for the Favourite Female Personality in the 2009 ASTRA Awards.
