Great photos! We had a similar spectacle just outside our kitchen window, where a family of sparrows (I think) had made a home in the drainpipe of our shed. When fledging time arrived, one little one tumbled to the ground. We weren’t sure whether to intervene, but like your daughter, we decided to let nature take its course. Sure enough, after much encouragement from mum (or dad), stationed on the shed roof , the little one finally took flight.

That makes me happy! Sounds exactly like what the parent was doing with this little fledgling.
The chick grew so fast. I wasn't prepared to see it leave the nest that soon.
I hope another one nests in the house. It's great fun watching them and listening to them.
