Both the American Red Cross and the American Heart Association train 2 breaths to 30 chest compressions for child/infant CPR, for either 1 or 2 rescuers.
The compression and ventilation ratio for a two-person rescue CPR is 15 compression and 2 breaths.

The infant mortality rate (IMR) is a measure that reflects the number of deaths of infants under one year of age per 1,000 live births in a given year. In contrast, the infant mortality ratio typically compares the number of infant deaths to the number of live births, often expressed as a ratio rather than a rate. While both terms relate to the deaths of infants, the IMR focuses on a specific timeframe and population size, whereas the ratio may not provide a standardized measurement over time.
15:2
30:2
With 2 rescuers, compressions and ventilations should be done at a ratio of 15:2 for an infant or child.
Ratio of compressions to breaths for a toddler is 30 compressions to 2 breaths.
1 rescuer CPR for infant is 30 compressions to 1 breath.
It is due to the fact that the vital organs are more susceptible to damage from lack of oxygen in an infant or child than for an adult.
American Heart Association CPR compression ratio is 30 compressions to 2 breaths. This is the ratio for Adults, Children, and Infants (lay rescuer). The compressions are given at a rate of 100/minute.
