That is i think more of a personal feeling as to whether to tip or not for a 1 year old. But if it were me I would probably still tip the full amount just because I would feel bad knowing how hard they work to clean the staterooms, or help in general that I would want them to feel appreciated. Not everyone feels this way and may tip less for their child but thats what I would do. Since you don't tip until the end of the cruise maybe plan on tipping the full amount but change it if you feel differently when your cruise is over and its time to tip. Base it on the service you received.

I think the protocol would be the full amount but you still have the option of changing it when the time comes to tip based on the service you received.
