Sachet worked as a teacher, and then as a school principal.[1] In February 2001 she was made a chevalier of the Ordre des Palmes académiques.[1] She was first elected to the Assembly of French Polynesia in the 2013 French Polynesian legislative election as a representative of the Tahoera'a Huiraatira.[1][2] In the 2014 municipal elections she headed the Tahoera'a Huiraatira list in Faaa, losing by a wide margin to Oscar Temaru.[3]

In December 2015 she quit the Tahoera'a party to join Édouard Fritch's Tapura Huiraatira,[2][4] citing the need to give Fritch a majority.[5] She was re-elected to the Assembly in the 2018 election.[6] Following the election she was appointed to Fritch's Cabinet as Minister of Family and Solidarity, in charge of Equal Opportunities,[7] surrendering her position in the Assembly as a result.[8] A cabinet reshuffle in September 2020 following the resignation of Teva Rohfritsch saw her gain responsibility for the Fight against Exclusion and the Status of Women.[9]

She was replaced as a Minister in a cabinet reshuffle in February 2022, and her portfolios were taken over by Virginie Bruant.[10] After leaving cabinet she returned to the Assembly.[11] She was not included in Tapura's list at the 2023 election.[12]
