You haven't mentioned your marital status or if there are any court orders and the answer depends on the details of your particular situation.

Generally:

If the parents are married it would not be kidnapping. The mother would need to file a request in the family court to have the child returned. She should consult with an attorney who specializes in family law. She should act as soon as possible.

If the parents aren't married and the father has not established his paternity then he has no right to take the child at all. The mother should call the police immediately and report the situation.

If the parents are divorced and there is a custody and visitation order you need to review those orders. It is likely that the father cannot take the child out of state permanently. If so the mother should call the police immediately and report the situation.

The mother should visit the local family court to speak with an advocate who can review her situation and direct her to the right assistance.

Is it considered kidnapping a child if mother and father are married and mother leaves with child without telling father?

I believe it would probably be labelled as custodial interference if both parents have custody of the child. It's usually only kidnapping if someone without custody of the child takes them, though different states and judicial systems will all make their own decisions.
