    Her accent sounds like that of an Amish person--mild German accent. After all the Amish were from Germany but originally from Switzerland. They also speak a dialect of German called Pennsylvania Dutch which is called that because when the Amish first came to what is now the United States in the 1700s the first state they settled into was Pennsylvania, the dialect developed there, and the English colonists referred to anything and anyone from German speaking parts of Europe which include Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Belgium and even parts of the Netherlands as Dutch.
