My 2 year old daughter cut the top of her foot i got the bleeding to stop but it's still deep. how do ik if she needs stitches?

Depends: If the skin gapes or exposes the layers underneath it may need them. If the cut is more than a centimeter long it might. If these are present an exam would be needed to sort it out.
