In what section is her mileage listed? I cannot find a place for it in the self-employment section of TurboTax.

    It depends on how she is paid.  If she is paid as a 1099 independent contractor, then yes, you can deduct this as a business expense on her Schedule C.

     

    If she is paid as a W-2 employee, then no, employee job related expenses are not deductible.
