Some limitations: Cannot receive SMS/MMS messages, as that depends on a fully paired iPhone. Messaging is pretty much limited to Apple's Messages, unless the messaging service provides an Apple Watch app. Alarms, alerts, notifications on the iPhone are not sent to the Apple Watch. Apple Pay via a credit card is not available. Also not available: Medications, respiratory rate, irregular heart rhythm notifications, ECG, AFib History, Cycle Tracking, Sleep, Wrist Temperature, Blood Oxygen, Walking Steadiness, Audiobooks, Camera Remote, News, Shortcuts, and the double tap gesture.

An Apple Watch is designed to pair with an Apple iPhone. If you don't want your daughter to have an iPhone yet, then that is fine however the Apple Watch will not be the correct choice for her needs. The Iphone needs to be within range of the watch in order for the watch to operate correctly. I recommend either get her an iPhone or search for another option that will fulfill your needs.
