As long as you checked everything to sync on iCloud you're good. It should default to backup everything.

What all is she backing up? How much iCloud storage does she have?

I ask because I can't backup to iCloud due to storage limitations. Been trying to determine if I'm missing something or not. I don't plug into the computer very often.

Everything except for music that wasn't purchased through iTunes. You would have to sync it again.

I don't know if this will help you, but I use iCloud backup just for my contacts and calendars and maybe some things that I need if my phone went down. I make it a point to do a hard copy backup to a computer fairly often because of the horror stories I hear about people losing everything.

Before getting a new device I also make a hard copy backup right before so in case of emergency I can restore everything to the new device. It gives me some piece of mind, but I haven't had to use it yet.
