You'd be better off ringing 111 for advice
Hope she's ok

How high was the stool she fell off?

I'd get it checked.

Hope she’s okay now. There’s guidance online but I think isn’t it something like if it’s less than a metre fall it’s probably okay as long as no dodgy symptoms? Best to get checked if you’re worried.

Toddlers are quite hardy, but good guidance on the NHS website about what to look out for

It’s deffo less than a meter and she seems totally fine.. I’ve rang the out of hours doctor.. I’ve checked she’s no bumps or anything and she is being her usual self

I’ve looked up the dementions of the stool and it’s 48 cms
