It depends on her height and how active she is, among other factors. At that age, because she's still growing, it would really be advisable to consult a dietician. In the absence of a professional opinion, try starting her out at 1500 calories per day. Have her step on a scale three times a week, always at the same time of day. She should be allowed to lose no more than 1-2 pounds per week; losing more than that can be unhealthy.

A nine year old girl should not be trying to lose weight. At nine, you are still growing and starving your body will be detrimental to your overall health and development. Eat healthy and exercise, and nature will take care of the rest.
