Apple Watch - Family Mode - Two Cellular Plans

Hi, my iPhone cellular company, Spectrum, does not support Apple Watch Family Mode. The Apple Watch 5 is for my daughter and we'd prefer to use a watch rather than get her a phone. is there a way to add a wearable cellular plan for Watch in Family Mode that is separate from the iPhone cellular plan?
