I would like to hire a relative as a nanny for my kids. I know the steps to obtain LMIA but just curious if it would be allowed to hire a blood relative.
She also has a visitor visa. Would it be okay if she comes here and applies work permit from Canada or does it have to be from her home country?

She should apply from her home country. Lower chances of approval if she applies from Canada.
It generally is harder to get an approval when you are trying to hire a relative. You'll want to make sure she has the training / work experience required to qualify.
Thanks for the reply. She has a caregiver certificate although it doesn't specify children. I would prefer a family member to raise my kids.
How can I increase the chances of approval?

We are on the same boat. I got the positive LMIA and my niece is now preparing her work permit application. I would suggest to write an invitation letter stating why you would want to hire a relative to take care of your child.
