I have an utility method to switch to the required window as shown below

public class Utility 
{
    public static WebDriver getHandleToWindow(String title){

        //parentWindowHandle = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().getWindowHandle(); // save the current window handle.
        WebDriver popup = null;
        Set<String> windowIterator = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().getWindowHandles();
        System.err.println("No of windows :  " + windowIterator.size());
        for (String s : windowIterator) {
          String windowHandle = s; 
          popup = WebDriverInitialize.getDriver().switchTo().window(windowHandle);
          System.out.println("Window Title : " + popup.getTitle());
          System.out.println("Window Url : " + popup.getCurrentUrl());
          if (popup.getTitle().equals(title) ){
              System.out.println("Selected Window Title : " + popup.getTitle());
              return popup;
          }

        }
                System.out.println("Window Title :" + popup.getTitle());
                System.out.println();
            return popup;
        }
}

It will take you to desired window once title of the window is passed as parameter. In your case you can do.

Webdriver childDriver = Utility.getHandleToWindow("titleOfChildWindow");

and then again switch to parent window using the same method

Webdriver parentDriver = Utility.getHandleToWindow("titleOfParentWindow");

This method works effectively when dealing with multiple windows.

It seems like you are not actually switching to any new window  You are supposed get the window handle of your original window  save that  then get the window handle of the new window and switch to that  Once you are done with the new window you need to close it  then switch back to the original window handle  See my sample below   i e   String parentHandle   driver getWindowHandle       get the current window handle driver findElement By xpath       id  someXpath      click       click some link that opens a new window  for  String winHandle   driver getWindowHandles          driver switchTo   window winHandle      switch focus of WebDriver to the next found window handle  that s your newly opened window       code to do something on new window  driver close       close newly opened window when done with it driver switchTo   window parentHandle      switch back to the original window
