Unless you pay for while she is with you, then technically she's not being paid and therefore not working. She'd have to be careful going through immigration though and make sure she does have the funds to support herself so questions don't get asked.

Thanks Michelle....Im thinking of paying her just to be fair.I guess I wil now consider your thoughts on asking immigration advise about the right visa for her.

I would say it would be similar to here in Australia. If you're not going to be paying her surely she could enter on the automatic tourist visa that you get when you land.
If you're wanting to pay her then you'll need to see an immigration specialist. I know she's not looking at mirgrating but they would know about all the different visa's. It would have to be some sort of working visa if you will be paying her.

What country are you in and what country is she from?
It would help us to know this first.
