There's nothing to worry about. That's just a normal newborn rosy instinctual defense mechanism. She's tapping you with her nose as a warning. Effective(psychologically) isn't it?!?
She'll grow out of it. You might want to give her some time to get used to her new digs, but just keep handling her & she'll be fine.
I don't think a short drop like that would do any damage. They have so little mass when they're young.
Be warned tho...keeping rosies is addictive.
