Do not worry. This is completely normal.


This is a newer feature in the Find app that helps you remember your Apple device if you forget it. Ex. you take your iPad to work, later in the day you leave your workplace without your iPad. You will receive a message on your iPhone that you have left your device - now you know that you have forgotten your iPad.


If you do not want to receive these messages then you can disable it. On your iPhone, open the Find app, select Devices from the bottom menu. Find your iPad and tap it. Find the menu item "Notify when it is left" and turn off this function. Then you will not receive messages when you leave your iPad.
