To become a child doctor or pediatrician you first have to become a doctor. Following medical school you will have to do a minimum of 3 years residency in pediatrics (the babies and children unit of a medical school hospital). Recommended high school subjects are mathematics and science subjects like Biology, physics and chemistry. Becoming a doctor is highly competitive and the prospective doctor should aim for excellent grades.
