FindVisualChild method is not provided by WPF framework, you have to add them. May be you want this:

public static IEnumerable FindVisualChildren(DependencyObject depObj)
       where T : DependencyObject
{
    if (depObj != null)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < VisualTreeHelper.GetChildrenCount(depObj); i++)
        {
            DependencyObject child = VisualTreeHelper.GetChild(depObj, i);
            if (child != null && child is T)
            {
                yield return (T)child;
            }

            foreach (T childOfChild in FindVisualChildren(child))
            {
                yield return childOfChild;
            }
        }
    }
}

public static childItem FindVisualChild(DependencyObject obj)
    where childItem : DependencyObject
{
    foreach (childItem child in FindVisualChildren(obj))
    {
        return child;
    }

    return null;
}

Add these methods in some utility class so they can be reuse.
