Absolutely not. This all boils down to your primary survey or ABC's (Airway, Breathing, and Circulation). You started performing CPR on the child because they weren't breathing and probably didn't have circulation. When the child starts to breath again on their own, you have to stop what you're doing and re-assess the situation. If they were breathing when you first found them you would not have started CPR in the first place, and the same logic applies now. On another note, you cannot breath if your heart isn't beating, so don't drive yourself nuts deciding whether or not to continue compressions; the answer is no.
