Go to the Doctor: Regardless of what "may' have caused this episode, you must get your daughter to the doctor today. This is nothing that you wait and watch or observe. Go to the Doctor, urgent care center or ER now.

Many things: Many things can cause fainting. If she had been sitting awhile, she may have dropped her blood pressure if she stood up to quickly. Other causes can be dehydration, low blood sugar, seizures and heart issues. I recommended having her seen by a doctor.
