I have set up family sharing for my child. Now when I download apps to my phone they automatically show up on her iPad.

Perhaps she is using your same Apple ID.

Read this paragraph:--> Family Sharing makes it easy for up to six family members to share App Store purchases and Apple subscriptions, including an iCloud storage plan, and more—all without sharing an Apple ID. It includes the ability to set up an Apple ID for kids, set permissions remotely with Screen Time, and approve spending and downloads from a parent's device. Your family can also share a photo album, a family calendar, and even help locate each other's missing devices.
