It looks like that she has torticollis that happens due to damage to one of the neck muscles during the birthing process.
Tilt in the neck position may not be noticed at birth but becomes apparent later on.
She should be seen by a Pediatrician to assess her problem. Neck muscle exercises can be tried first.
It appears to be considered congenital Torticollis. a check up from pediatrician is advisable

In addition to torticollis
Some tumour of sternocleidomastoid muscle May cause such problem.
But mentioned earlier is more common. Consult paediatrician or Paediatric surgeon.
