My sis-mom left the semester after I pledged, but we still kept up. I could've gotten in touch with her if I needed something. So it's not the end of the world. And my first sis-daughter is my own age and she still calls me "mom"...I think for bigs/littles/sis-daughters/sis-mothers/whatever it isn't so much age as seniority in the chapter, because it's really the organization that they are supposed to help you with...I would choose the girl you're closest with, regardless of age. As long as they're there to help you ease in that first semester, you can always go back later with questions even if it's through facebook.
Sometimes seniors don't really have as much time for the sorority anymore, which is something to consider, though...you need someone who can really guide you in your organization for that first semester.
