it will take you a hell of a lot of time and money to get her sponsered. you will have to talk to a celisitor. but if she has been hear for 6 months on that date then she will have to leave. (they can only stay for that long in total)
you will have to prove that you are employing her, that you are a proper employer and are paying all the relevent tax's. it's a lot of work to actually do and it's getting even harder now!
You need to look at www.workingintheuk.gov.uk to see if she qualifies for a work permit or another visa, such as the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme. Without knowing what it is she does, I can't tell her chances.
