I wouldn't wake the child up early. Not a ONE year old!! 2hr is not an excessive naptime at all, my own 1yr old sleeps 12 hrs at night and one 2.5-3hr nap. This is the parent not being stern enough and are looking for someone (you) to blame.
I would wake her up with the rest and tell the parent that u did, indeed wake her up early and so she should be good and tired for bedtime. Guaranteed the girl will go down better as it will be in the parents mind that "she MUST be tired, she had a short nap!". Sometimes the problem is not at all with the child's naptime, but the parents keeping a consistent and firm bedtime routine.
