Why do you have to start all over? If you delete an account and the resident associated with that account is still in the game, press the (-) button on the home screen and Tom nook will help you delete that person.I’ve just shot myself in the foot by deleting sons account. I’ve to start the game all over again I want to cry.

Because like New Leaf, the Island rep owns the town. There cannot be a reelection for a Mayor or Island Rep.
I’m assuming OP is the island rep, not the extra accounts.
Ok. Since OP claims deleting son's account was devastating for the island, it sounds like the son was the island rep.

I can donate you some bells or materials if it helps get you back on track.
You are so sweet! I’ve started again, yes my son was the island rep
It’s okay I’m calm I’m calm... 
I have no idea how to add people or anything yet. Would love some friends if someone tells me how I can add them

Without my Switch with me, I don't know the exact steps, but you go to the home screen on your Switch, then hit your profile icon in the top left corner. Once your profile opens, on the left there is a series of menu options, one of which deals with adding friends. You just need to find the add a friend option that involves entering friend codes, which are a series of numbers like this 1234-5678-9012. The SW part you may typically see others put in front of their code signifies that the code belongs to the Switch, and not the Wii, NDS, or 3DS. So you don't need to do anything with it.
There is an option in the game for playing with people without adding them to your friend list if you'd like that. This involves using what's called a Dodo code, which the Airport in game can explain to you.
Thank you again you are so kind

I didn't think it was possible to delete the rep without deleting the whole island. That's what nook told me anyways.
Ok so in a panic I deleted my son’s whole profile from the switch (he has his own switch I’m not that evil he never plays mine just once for AC) and then realised he was the Rep after

I wish it went back to the old system. It seem like we can't make a different in our purchasing power like in past AC game.
Even New Leaf had the "days passed" progression system

True. That's why the island was deleted in this case.

Hi I’m having the same issue, wondering did you ever figure out how to get Timmy or Tommy to ask for help building the nook cranny?

Hi, just wondering did you ever figure it out? I’m stuck and on my third house upgrade, museum is build, and still no request to help build the nook cranny and I have all the supplies!Hi all,
I cannot for the life of me Unlock nooks Cranny.
I have paid off my 5000 miles for settlement. I have paid off my house. I’m now lying off my first extension and Tom Nook STILL hasn’t asked me to help him build. I have built the museum and have loads of things donated. I’ve visited loads of islands and invited islanders to live on my island. What am I doing wrong?
Any help appreciated I’m tearing my hair out.
