Go to tryouts for community plays where there might be roles for someone her age. See if she has the temperment and discipline to be an actor. If she has a couple of good experiences, look for an acting school who will take her. It may be possible to enroll her in acting lessons, just as other kids take piano lessons.
Once she is working with other actors and taking lessons, her acting colleagues will be able to help her and advise you about other opportunities. Acting is a highly competitive and demanding career, and the chances of being "discovered" as an amateur are miniscule. So if you want to get ahead, you have to get yourself out there and work at it.

First determine if that's what she wants to do.
Look around your area for kids' acting classes and theatre companies. She's got to have some basic skills before auditioning. Encourage her to participate in productions, even as a small part.
You can get some basic head shots for a few hundred dollars. Submit the head shot and resume to various talent agencies. Note that if they ask for money up front, they are not legitimate.
Be prepared to spend a lot of your own time on her career.

Find a publicist, agent, or promotion company, spend thousands on head shots. Go to hundreds of auditions, get called back for maybe one - and it's a commercial for foot fungus (that's the business honey)
