Your child will have same Visa conditions so as you i.e. "no recourse to public fund". You have to maintain Â£1867(800+533+533) for three months for her/his visa, provided you are in UK for over 1 year.

Your kid is entitle to free education & medical. The only difference is that you pay for prescriptions but you don't have to pay for your kid's prescriptions. Your wife will also be entitle to free dentle care upto 1 year from baby birth. You are not allowed child tax credit or any other similar benefits.

If not travelling, then child born in the UK do not need to make an immigration application for leave to remain.
