How to chant it
ॐ नैष्कर्म्यायै नमः
oṃ naiṣkarmyāyai namaḥ
om naishkarmyayai namah
In the stotra the name is chanted as it stands, naiṣkarmyā, as part of Shloka 167. In the nāmāvalī, the form used for arcana(worship with an offering at each name), it is turned to the dative, the case of offering: “to her”. Then it is framed by oṃ before and namaḥ, “salutation”, after.
