If she posted a bond, you have to abide by the terms of the contract, whatever they may be (most do not allow for leaving the state without permission). If she posted cash bail, then she can leave unless the court placed upon her the additional restriction of not leaving the state.

She can go unless there are travel restrictions in place set by a Judge or a bailbondsman (I you used one).

Unless travel restrictions were imposed by the court she is free to travel anywhere she likes so long as she returns to court when she is supposed to. If mom used a bail bondsman, oftentimes they impose additional reporting requirements such as regular checking in at their office. You may want to check with them if they have any objections (they can always have bond revoked if you don't follow their rules).
