TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, you can bring your child with you if you obtain a student visa or work permit in Thailand. Your child can apply for a dependent visa or extension based on your long-term visa.

If it's your child, or you're the guardian, yes.

A small child is not the correct nomenclature in this context. It is either your son or daughter, followed by age.

Sorry I don’t know the answer to that one. In theory I’d think yes, but I’m just not confident I could give you an informed answer. Maybe others here with direct experience can advise.

a work permit for sure, if your employer agrees and gives the necessary paperwork to immigration. It’s the education visa part I’m not sure about.
