Witnesses say about nine shots were fired from an alley outside her home at 33 Brook Street at about 4 a.m.
The girl was awake in her bedroom trying to get her infant brother to go to sleep when her collarbone was grazed.
She was treated at a hospital and released.
There have been no arrests.
"It's just so senseless and stupid," Police Chief John Romero told WBZ-TV.
"You spray a house and you don't know where those bullets are going to go and in this case here, struck a young child."
Romero said the shooter may have had an issue with people on the second floor after a run-in earlier in the night.
At least four bullet holes were visible in the side of the lower floors of the triple decker.
