When my kids had cradle cap I put olive oil on their scalp then gently combed it out. Lots of hair came out with it tho! Oh well, it all grew back of course.

Tough to know without pic. Could be Cradle cap, rub oil into it, let it sit for a while, then use a tooth brush to gently lift it, then fine tooth comb it to get it out of hair. If this doesn’t clear it, try anti dandruff shampoo. If you’re unsure, take her to the chemist and get them to have a look. You can buy special stuff for cradle cap, but it can make their hair fall out, which is probably no biggie on a little bub, but not ideal for a 3 year old...
