It happens when you have sensitive skin. i started to get red from pool when I was a child and now i can’t even go into a chlorinated pool unless i want to wear a rash for a few days. She may be lucky and grow out of it.

Could be an allergic reaction. Check with a local pool supply store and see if there is an alternative to chlorine.
