The expected resting heart rate ranges for children in beats per minute are: Newborns (birth to 4 weeks): 100 to 205 bpm*. Infant (4 weeks to 1 year): 100 to 180 bpm*. Toddler (1 to 3 years): 98 to 140 bpm*. Preschool (3 to 5 years): 80 to 120 bpm. School-age (5 to 12 years): 75 to 118 bpm. Adolescents (13 to 18 years): 60 to 100 bpm.

The normal resting heart rate varies by age. In adults, any number between 60 and 100 beats per minute (bpm) is considered a good resting heart rate. Babies and young children have higher resting heart rates than older kids, teens, and adults.

if you are an adult, your heart rate should be in the range of 60 to 100 beats per minute. And if your age is between 6 and 15 years, your heart rate should be anywhere between 70 and 100 per minute.

What is a normal resting heart rate by age? “The normal newborn heart rate is 100 to 160 bpm,” says Hamish. “That gradually decreases to between 60 and 80 bpm as a teenager and an adult. Although most people will have episodes of resting heart rate below 60 and athletes will often sit in the 40s.”
