Is this probably the tuners? Or are there other possibilities?

If you got the guitar from a local music.guitar store you can take it to them and have them check it out. If you bought it online and you can return it that's an option. If it's the tuners, depending on what you paid for the guitar, a new set of decent tuners may cost more than the guitar. You can also check to make sure the tuners are tight, sometimes (if you're lucky), you just need to tighten the screw in the middle of the gear of the tuner...hey, could happen! Besides not staying in tune, how's the action on the guitar? Is it such that your daughter will be discouraged trying to learn? Good luck to you and your daughter.
