hi
welcome to healthcare magic forum
it is very common to see that child take time to sleep in night
but the reason may be that as she sleep in afternoon it is natural to take more time to sleep
one way is to keep her busy in day and not to allow sleep for more time
second way is keep her very active in play or doing other thing in which she do some physical work
so it is good for her health also
dont let her feel that you have to make extra effort to make her slept.
i hope i answered your question
