Removing “Downtime Contact” from my name on my daughter’s phone

My daughter received her first phone at a young age, so at that time I enabled downtime and restrictions, including setting specific contacts she could call/text during downtime. As she’s gotten older, I’ve removed most restrictions and eliminated the need for specific contacts she can have more freedom. However, in spite of removing all specific contacts, she still has me listed as a downtime contact and can’t change my profile photo or edit the contact information on her own, without asking for the password. I even disabled downtime, and it still wouldn’t remove me from a downtime contact, therefore blocking her from editing the information. Is there anything I can do to remove the downtime contact notation so she has control of her own phone again? For now, I’ve changed the passcode for screen time and given it to her, but I’d like to remove the need for a passcode by eliminating issue itself. She’s on an iPhone 16, I’m on an iPhone 16 pro, and we’re both on iOS 18.4.
