Try a Sig P239 in 9mm. It's very comfortable and easy to shoot. Whatever you get, you should have night sites installed (if they don't come with the gun), and a Surefire flashlight that you either mount to the weapon, or keep handy. Most importantly, get some good training.
. I just want her to have something portable that she can slip under her car seat and carry with her if it becomes necessary for her to take our daughter and beat feet from the greater NY area.
If she is traveling outside of NY state, she should consider getting a concealed carry permit from another state. I think Florida and Utah CCW permits are among the best, since even their non-resident permits are recognized by nearly 30 other states.

My wife has small hands too. She opted for a Sig P225 9mm because the single stack magazine made for a smaller grip size and more appropriate span from the web of her thumb to the tip of her trigger finger. She has an "Officers" 1911 in .45ACP for the same reason. Her favorite (and mine) is the S&W 686+ .357mag with 4" barrel. 7 shots and an L frame that fits the hand nicely. Good quality Bianchi leather is available as well.

I had a Walther PPK 380 and got rid of it.I am like the woman descibed, 5 feet tall and small hands. The spring on the Walther was too heavy and in order to slide it back my hand went over the barreel opening. That was unsafe so got a Sig 230. The only problem is that the feed on the 3 round shot hangs up and have to recock the gun. But the weight and ease of the slide is very nice and it points very nicely. Accuracy for the small barrell suck compared to my Smith 41 22lr target gun. But the Sig is not designed for target use.
