MongoDB $push to nested child - recursive data structure

Question

I have the following schema and route set up. I cannot post request further into the nested child. Ideally, I want to be able to post request like the following (post to 3 results in id 4 child). Any help is appreciated.

Edit: Is it even possible without recursively findOne through each index like findOne at top -> findOne at child -> findOne at child2 till it finds matching id? Is restructuring database to make it flat and adding parentID key the only way?

[
  {
    {
      id:1,
      child: [
        {
          id:3,
            child: [
              {
                id:4,
                child:[]
              }
           ]
         }
       ]
    }
    id:2,
    child:[]
    }
]
