The warranty is linked to the serial number and transferring the device from her to you won't cancel the warranty.

You can check the warranty in the following ways:

Use an internet browser and go to: mysupport.apple.com

or checkcoverage.apple.com

More information in Find information about your warranty or AppleCare plan - Apple Support

Also:

On an iPhone or iPad: Settings > General > About > Coverage


AppleCare cannot be added to a device after it is 60 days old.


Also, not related to warranty or AppleCare but the following has information that may help your daughter clear her information from the iPad: What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
