Photo backup without sharing?

I was running out of storage in my iPhone and my daughter's iPad, so I enabled photos on iCloud. Now I see all my photos in my daughter's iPad and all her photos on my iPhone. Is there a way to disable this function, yet keep all our photos on the cloud (as a backup) to free up space on the devices, without sharing any between different devices?

Thanks, I did try and log out on my daughter's iPad, and made a new icloud account for children, and now I don't see my pictures on her iPad, but I still see the ones from her iPad that I had previously uploaded into icloud photos. Am I supposed to delete them all one by one? Isn't there a function to restore the camera roll including only pictures that were taken with my iPhone?
