If she's got a temperature then Calpol and obviously plenty of fluids, hopefully she can keep these down till you get to the Doctor. Hope she's OK.
Have you asked if theres anything going round nursery or anything you should be aware of???

Don't give her ANYTHING if she is vomiting.
Standards are to go an hour without anything. After an hour give her two teaspoons every 10-15 mins for about an hour of pedialite or what ever thing you are using (no milk). If she vomits again start over. If she doesn't then increas it a little a time untill she is holding stuff down. Don't give her food right off. Doctor will probably want her on a rice(brat) diet, they can explain. She will not become dehydrated and this will allow her stomach time to settle.

OK I'm not a Dr but have kids and what I would do while waiting for the doc was to get those pedialyte pops. They're like Otter Pops, but not as sweet. It rehydrates and stops the vomiting. If you don't have any now, well they need to freeze so get some to have on hand always. But do you have any juice that you could water down and put in an ice cube tray and let her suck on it. The combo of the juice, and the sucking will stop the vomiting. Good luck, sweetie, get the pedia Pops, I can't recommend them enough!

Start her on the BRAT diet (strictly) (bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast) Aso find some pedialyte and give her that as well. Most doctore won't perscribe anything to a child 4 and younger for vomiting... sucks I know! Good luck with everything. Call her pediatrician as soon as her office opens.

Make sure to giver her plently of fluids, pedilyte is good if you can get her to drink it. Freeze into popcicles if that helps.
About the only thing you can do at this point is make sure she's not dehydrated. If she can keep down chicken broth, try that. But fluids. lots and lots of fluids. If she is not going to the bathroom regularly or becomes lethargic take her to the closest ER, don't wait for the doctor.

Jilly if you think that this is serious then you should go to the nearest clinic available , your daughter needs the best of care and waiting 2 hours for doctor is unwise considering that she's just 11 months old and still very fragile,try tapping her back very gently and calm her down.
