For two rescuer infant CPR; one rescuer should give the breaths, the other rescuer performs compressions using the 2 thumbs encircling hands technique. Give cycles of 15 compressions and 2 breaths.
In two-rescuer child CPR, the compression-to-ventilation ratio is 15:2. This means that after every 15 chest compressions, the rescuers should provide 2 rescue breaths. The chest compressions should be performed at a rate of 100 to 120 compressions per minute, using one or two hands depending on the size of the child, while ensuring that the breaths are given over 1 second each and make the chest rise visibly.

Perform Adult CPR by 30 chest compressions to 2 breaths.
Compressions on an infant should be performed either with you hands wrapped around the baby, pushing your thumbs into the lower half of the sternum, but not the very bottom of it, or with the baby lying flat on it's back, using your index and middle finger in the same location. Depth should be 1/3 the total thickness of the infant's chest, or about 1 1/2 inches. If alone, give 2 rescue breaths after every 30 compressions at a rate of 100 per minute, being sure to cover the infant's mouth AND nose with your mouth. If you have a second rescuer, have them give 2 rescue breaths after every 15 compressions. Have the 2nd rescuer call 911 before assisting you with CPR.
You should remove the patches, with a gloved hand, before placing AED pads on patient. You should also wipe off the skin with a piece of cloth in order to make sure all of the medication is off of their skin.
