Being confident in the water will certainly help, but that first breath with your head underwater, none of my swimming experience prepared me for that. I happened to get hooked on it and hopefully your daughter will as well.

I think chewyjr15 has a good suggestion. Also, just reinforce with her that diving is serious, it can be very safe, but it still will be far more serious than what a typical 10-year old has experienced.
