Good for you!

Just a quick behavioral tip… many keepers recommend not handling a pet daily. Handling is stressful, until they are really used to it and come to enjoy it. Daily stressors seven days a week, without 48 hours to decompress and let the adrenergic system chill for a while, can reduce the animal’s immune system response. You may not have meant literally every day, but if you did, then just take my comment under advisement, and consider giving her a break from daily handling, maybe once per week or so.
