The 43-year-old driver was breath tested and allegedly returned a blood alcohol reading of 0.121 - more than twice the legal limit.
She will face Liverpool Local Court on July 10 charged with mid-range drink driving, having an unrestrained child and driving with a passenger under four in the front of a vehicle.
NSW Police notified the Department of Family and Community Services and the toddler was placed in her grandmother's care.
