The error in the original sentence is in the compound adjective "two year old daughter." In this compound adjective, "two," "year," and "old" all work together to describe the daughter. However, they should be hyphenated together as "two-year-old" to form a single adjective. This hyphenation helps to clarify that the entire phrase "two-year-old" is modifying "daughter."
Therefore, the correct version is "Millie might not be able to attend the play tonight because she still has to find someone to watch her two-year-old daughter for the night."
