    You will need to erase all of your data, go into your settings>general>reset, then select erase all data.  Do this only after you backed up your iPhone to your desktop or iCloud.

    Okay, she will need to setup her own Apple ID, then you should go into the settings>icloud and delete your information then she should sign in with her new Apple ID.
