How to perform the Heimlich maneuver
on a choking child, 1 to 8 years old:
1. It is especially important for children
this age that you remain calm and in control. Use your voice
to reassure the child as you proceed.
2. From a standing position behind the child,
wrap your arms around the child's mid-section. Place your
fist just above her navel and cover your fist with your other
hand.
