I think you should apologize to her and get her a new phone asap.
But I wonder how your relation with her will be from now on.
When we get upset we all can do silly things but throwing out her mobile phone is quite extreme. She might be quite shocked ?
I think you have to sit down with her and have a talk about what happened.
If she doesn't understand that she can't use her phone during the day and it gets so much on your nerves, you should consider to get someone else who will be able to accept your home rules.
I don't think that it's being very demanding to ask your helper NOT to use her phone but throwing it out of the window is not a good behaviour at all.

Agreed with all of the above. While she was wrong to chat "endlessly" during work hours, you certainly crossed way over the line by tossing the phone out of the window. Behaving like a child (yes you did) will not improve the situation.
The way to resolve her chatting is by explaining clearly to her what you expect of her, and seeing if she follows your directives. If she still doesn't you can warn and eventually terminate her.
Note also that it should be ok to for her to talk on the phone while working, if it is within reason and does not interfere with her work. For example while she cooks.
