DS was 8 months and couldn't sit up. Everyone has already said it...but yes just get at her level and have fun. Most *baby* games will really help promote a healthy bond...and as mentioned, just don't leave her there for hours at a time.
One thing we did with DS which is great for eye contact and helping to sit up was I put him on the bed and gently pulled him up toward me...a baby sit up...he loved it and it covered both bases.
We also would put him in his pack n play when we couldn't hold him...like when cooking by the stove. We would just move the whole pack n play into the kitchen...to keep him close and interact with talking and singing. That way he could still see us and work on sitting up then pulling himself up, etc.
All the best...
