You did not get PR through the 10 year route, you got ILR.

You will need to register your child as a British citizen on Form MN1 before applying for a British passport. As she is born in the UK, she is entitled to be registered (i.e. it can not be refused).

Once you get a certificate of registration, you can then apply for the British passport for her.
