If the child has stopped breathing and has no pulse American Heart Association CPR states 30 compressions for every 2 breaths for a child ages 1 years of age to Puberty.

If the child has stopped breathing, you want to make sure that there is no pulse before starting CPR. If a pulse is still present, check to see if there are any visible airway obstructions first (toys, foreign objects), if so safely remove object, do not blindly stick finger down child throat, if not give assisted ventilations.
