Composition: The composition is good. The child is not centered yet she is not pushed to the sides of the frame either. There is some interest around her in the frame yet it does not distract.
Technical: I think B&W was a good choice as the colours of the clothing would have been a distration from the child who is your central topic. The B&W conversion seems ok but feels a little flat, perhaps a bit more contrast. If you could have got the childs face into the shot I feel your score would have increased as we could have felt a connection with her.
Feel: I rated this one above the score it finally received. While the multiple light sources is not obvious it worked on a couple of levels: a straight lighting shot but also using the analogy of the child "lighting" the parents life. Being a parent I can relate to that sentiment.
If you have an comments feel free to PM me, good luck in future challenges.
