I'm excited to play it this weekend with my daughter. Can you transfer save data? She will have to start her file on her brothers switch until I can get her a switch of her own

Likely not, at least not for a while.  There is a program in place that can do a one time transfer, but that is supposedely just for lost, stolen, or damaged systems.  Basically, if she starts a file on her brother's Switch she will have to play on his island.  If she buys a new Switch she will have to start a new island.  And that is a reality whether you can transfer files or not.  Even if she could transfer the file, the entire island would have to transfer.  It's probably not the ideal situation, but it's what we have.  Just let her know that she'll have the opportunity to start brand new on her own island when she gets her own Switch.  She'll probably be so excited about that anyway to worry too much about the setback of her character's progress.

Maybe she can transfer/gift all the money and furniture she earned on the brother Swich?
