I'd say, by dashing toward your enemy (EQ, this is equal to the range of most ranged champions, I think), then start the rest of your combo, with W, auto attack, auto attack, Q, auto attack, Q, auto attack, auto attack. This way, you also use all your passive stacks. And you should outdamage Nidalee this way, as long as you dodge her Q.

After doing this two or three times, she will either put points in her Q and have to tower hug, or put points in her E and do no damage with Q. And when you reach level 6, just use your ult to finish her off.

It is also good to notice that a level 3 Valor is strong enough to block a tower shot. This way, you can EW in and Q out (or just walking) when someone is tower hugging, and walk out with effectively no damage. I did this against a duo lane Sion + someone else, they had to tower hug after two nice ganks and three kills for me, and I only got damage if Sion could stun me in time, which was almost never the case.

And buy a Vampiric Scepter on your first recall/death for sustain. (If you play like me, you have a big chance of dying once early. I don't hestitate to tower dive at level 2 or 3 if I get first blood with it. First blood is worth more gold.)
