    In my opinion you have nothing to worry about. I'm not a child psychologist (so my opinion is more general understanding of language development and being a parent). If she is fine (for her age) in your native tongue then here mental/cognitive development seems perfectly fine and it's probably just that she is shy about speaking English because she is more comfortable speaking in your native tongue. I am sure once she is "forced" to do so, when she enters daycare, kindergarten or some other social setting that you are not around, she will be communicating in whatever language she needs to - including English.

    Hope this helps.
