Rebekah Le Gal is pleading not guilty to the charge.
The incident happened on 27 June last year on Tunnell Street next to the Millennium Park. The three-year-old boy, of Moodiesburn near Glasgow, was on holiday in Jersey when it happened. He was airlifted to Southampton where he died from his injuries a few days later.
Ms Le Gal is being defended by Advocate Matthew Jowitt.
Ten witnesses will give evidence for the prosecution, led by HM Solicitor General Mark Temple, during the trial, including two experts.
Mrs Le Gal has been remanded on bail until the trial date.
