My own suggestions to her, was to start practising with the 40mm f2.8, then to consider getting the Nikon 35mm f1.8 DX plus the Nikon 50mm f1.8 FX.

Generally, practicing with a baby is the preferred route.
 
A bit more information would be useful nick?

I know this is a gear question, but it really all relates to her experience as a photographer. You say she wants to take photos of babies, but does she have the skill to do this? If she does, and she's guaranteed a good income from it then you can obviously justify a greater expense.

The two lenses you've mentioned are good but I'd be more concerned about light.

EDIT: Can she not use your lenses?

Thanks Adam

But the sarcastic comment from the previous reply has finished me with this forum. Thanks for your own comment.
 
Maybe his wife will now join and ask her own questions, I do hate these "Should she take sugar?" threads.

A bit OTT..... for every comment you dont like you would ahve got half a dozen that helped.. the post wasnt even personal or an attack.. it was just humor.. even the moderators would have ignored you had you complained...
 
I'd like to think it was even pertinent. Most child photographers I know started out with the baby before the camera. Being part of a mother-and-child network giving the sort of access to the market that can't be bought or achieved by male-pattern GAS.
