Visitor visa. You will have to keep extending it once in Canada.

As far as I know, Visitor cannot work, study.
Regarding free medical, for a temp resident to be eligible have some requirement which your kid wont fall into.

1. Yes, your child will be able to attend elementary school while here as a visitor.

2. Check the health website of the province you are going to.
