Well, I didn't have any really good advice, because of your daughter's age.  It made me wonder if possibly she is having a urinary tract infection or other issue.  It could also be stress related.  Maybe she has developed a phobia about getting out of bed in the dark of night to go to the loo.  A doctor would take all those things into consideration and would be your biggest help sorting out the possibilities, after she has a checkup for any physical thing.
