Genetics will give her what she will have. There is nothing you can do to make her head bigger. Heads mature up to 2 or 3 years of age so you can expect some more growth, but you need to look at her background, her parents and grandparents to see the types of heads they had. That should give you somewhat of an idea of what hers will turn out like. However, that being said, genetics is what will determine the final product.

Just love her for her big heart and don't worry about the size of her head.
