Do not delete the Guest account. Disable it instead. The Guest account
should not be used as a regular account.

Create an account for your daughter. Because you have XP Pro, you can
set group policies to limit her account with the Group Policy Editor.

Be very careful using the Editor since it is completely possible to lock
*yourself* out. For questions about Group Policy, post in the newsgroup
for it: microsoft.public.windows.group_policy

A simpler way might be to use the MS Shared Computer Toolkit:
