ناز دادن، رفتار بسیار خوب با کسی، به ویژه با سخاوت بیش از حد

Spoiled here means: she has treated her daughter very well and has been generous to her. If you spoil children, you give them everything they want or ask for. This is considered to have a bad effect on a child's character.

Spoil can also mean: to damage severely or harm (something) depending on the sentence or paragraph.

Example sentence:

Spoil your daughter with a new perfume this summer.
