How would you attach an 1820 US Census to an unamed child?

I'm trying to create documentation for individuals using the various Census and Vital records available on Ancestry.com. I'm not sure what to do when I get to the 1820, 1830, and 1840 Census.

Let's say I find a daughter born in 1818 and lives with her parents until 1841. I find the 1820, 1830, and 1840 Census of her father. Would you attach the Census record to the daughter even though the record name is indexed as the father's name?
