What do you mean by "kind enough?" Do you mean you claimed to be the one supporting your niece? DID you support your niece or was this just a way to get a tax refund by putting your niece on your tax return? And if you were the one supporting the child, why would the mother get the credit? A person who does not work does not get any child-related credits.
