Dont worry. Check with gp or hv just to put mind at rest. they all get moles, birthmarks, freckles at different ages

my ds got his first mole at about this age....it was his only one until recently when more have appeared (he's now 5).

I wouldn't worry about it, but mention it to your HV next time you see her

get it checked if you are worried but i think moles do occur at that age - my dd developed one on her back around that age.
