General consensus is to wait until she is older but I trained my daughter at that age. What worked for my kids was The Potty Stool http://www.thepottystool.com I started by just setting it at the toilet. My kids immediately climbed up on this stool and discovered that they could safely and securely use the toilet. This got them very interested in using the toilet and they were potty trained very quickly. My kids like to use what they know mommy and daddy use. Both my son and daughter were very excited about potty training because they could use the toilet.
I like that I don't have to double the steps of potty training by training them first in a potty and then training them to stop using a potty. And not dumping and cleaning a potty each time is great. The best thing is that kids use it for years. I hope this helps you

Look for signs that she's ready. Some children are ready at 18 months... others aren't.
When she starts asking for a changing, going for extended periods of time without a wet diaper, or brings you diapers when she's wet (basically, she's showing awareness that something's going on down there, and that she can do something about it) then you can try.
Nothing wrong with trying now, but keep it low-key and LOW PRESSURE. Forcing the issue will only delay things. I thought mine was ready at 18 months (she was asking for changes) but she just didn't have the patience. She's 21 months now, and seems to be interested.

Just wait. A little over two seems to work well for girls. I have potty trained one girl and one boy so far and my little girl was much easier. She was about 29 months old.
