Its strange that you are actually paying for your PHD. Most PHD students are on grants or TA. Anyways, am pretty sure your daughter may qualify for student loan.

You can apply for a PhD scholarship or research assistantship. Go to the website of uni you are interested in and find out the projects best suited to your background. Contact the prof supervising that project. If you he finds that you are the most suitable candidate for his project then he might offer you a part time RA/TA position. In this way you can register as PhD student and work as a part time RA/TA. Other option is to directly apply for a PhD scholarship, but remember these scholarships are very competitive and you need a very strong educational and research background to win one.
Good luck

Not only you will get salary from the school/project, but your tuition will be very low as well. So, you should definitely seek research/teaching assistantship positions. In any case, you need a project and advisor to complete your thesis. Why should you pay while they can pay you?
