I want to give my computer to my daughter but without all of my data

I purchased a new mac book air and transferred my data from my mac book pro. I want to give my old computer to my daughter but without all of my data still on it. How do I give her a clean computer with the start-up settings?

Giving old MacBook to family member (easiest way to transition) I want to give my high school son my old 2017 Intel MacBook Pro. Whilst I can factory reset it, I would prefer a fast way to transfer it when I don’t want it to go back to the original OS but keep the latest and I don’t want to delete all the programs on the device. I only want to delete my “files” and my settings. What is the best way to do it? Can someone refer me to a list of things to do to facilitate this change?
