Suggestion
I think that this painting could be improved by cropping. Since you chose not to include the child's hand, I would suggest that you crop the painting horozontally just above the sleeve to create a head and shoulders painting.
Also, if you prefer to show a bit more of the figure, you could crop to just an inch or two below the sleeve.
It is risky to crop a figure at the wrist or the elbow (or a knee and and an ankle).
