If so, If my child dies when she is 3, will she know who I am when I see her in heaven?

Yes. The Thessalonian Christians were apparently very concerned about their Christian loved ones who had died. They expressed their concern to the apostle Paul. So, in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17, Paul deals with the "dead in Christ" and assures the Thessalonian Christians that there will indeed be a reunion. And yes, believers will recognize their loved ones in the eternal state.
We are told in 2 Samuel 12:23 that David knew he would be reunited with his deceased son in heaven. He had no doubt about recognizing him. As well when Moses and Elijah (who had long passed from earthly life) appeared to Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration (Mat 17:1-8), they were recognized by all who were present. Furthermore, in Jesus' story of the rich man and Lazarus in Luke 16:19-31, the rich man, Lazarus, and Abraham were all recognized by each other in the intermediate state.

Yes! I'm a Sunni Muslim who had lost some of his beloved ones. Shortly after the death of some, I did see clear visions that these deceased ones have been forgiven by Allah and that they've entered Paradise.
I would like to add that these visions were supported by events that would exactly happen after I woke up. They happened so accurately tot the extent that I've found out that the personalities that I've seen in the visions appeared in reality wearing the same clothes and the same colors of the clothes! They spoke the same words and even answered exactly the same answers!!

I believe that yes, we will be able to see our loved ones in heaven. I am counting on that myself, I have a baby brother that I want to see one day. He will recognize me. We are talking about heaven, here.

Children are pretty much covered untill they can understand the rue meaning of Christs death and ressurection, Many denominations call it different things. She will know that you were somehow close to her but we will all be there with GOD and not with our wordly family.

There are many "angels" up there, so it's a matter of asking them. But then, she would have grown up and i am sure there are many facilities up there so that they can search for her loved ones including you. Dont worry too much, be cheerful.

The Bible says that we shall know as we are known.
I don't know exactly what that means but I believe that it means that we will know and be known by all who know and knew us here on earth. (If they are in heaven, that is)
So yes, I think she will know you. And you will know her.
