You cannot. The storage you play for is for iCloud, it does not affect the local capacity in any way on any device. It only provides storage on an Apple server somewhere for backups and data syncing like Contacts, Calendar and notes.


If you want to pay for iCloud storage to share with your daughter, you can use family sharing and a 200GB plan.
