DubC-Hicks makes an excellent suggestion on the Glock 43.
When I was looking for a small 9mm single stack for carry, I looked at the Sheid, a Springfield, a Kimber and the Glock 43. For me it came down to the Shield or the Glock. I have never owned nor shot a Glock, but it was nice and I remember the slide racked easier than the Shield. At the time. the delivery on the 43 was iffy due to demand. The LGS showed me the one that had been ordered and was awaiting pick up. If they would have had one in stock. I probably would have taken it over the Shield. Not bad mouthing the Shield as it is a good pistol, but. for my older hands, the Glock was much better.
It might be an excellent alternative for her and should be easy enough to find one now that she could look at. Good luck!
