I do agree with Alex's comments about color harmony. I try to do a color study before I proceed. I identify the dominant color, in your case, pink and balance it with a dull complementary, which in this case will be a grey green.
I do have to disagree with her comments about children's head proportions.
At approximately one to three years old the center of the head lies at the eyebrow line and gradually moves down as we grow to the eye line at adulthood.
A good reference for head proportions is Roberta Carter Clark's book , "How to Paint Living Portraits". It has a wealth of knowledge, including useful head size charts and good lighting information.
