Parent Naturalisation and Child BC registration

Hi
I received my permanent residence card in 2019. However, my daughter was born in 2017. Is it possible to make both my naturalisation and her British Citizenship (BC) registration at the same time or it’s better to do them separately?
In addition, she doesn’t have a passport or travel document would her birth certificate be enough as proof of identity
Thanks

You need to hold PR for 12 months before you can apply for citizenship if you are not married to a British citizen.

If your child is UK born, they can apply to register as British as an entitlement. This has nothing to do with whether you apply as well or not.

A UK born child does NOT need a passport to apply.
