conditional column

I have two columns, A parent column which gives the name of each parent and a child column that represents the type of child each parent has. I would like to create a new column within the query editor that tells me if a parent has a toddler, an infant or both. For example the new column would  show that John has “both”, Tom has “Toddler”, Mike has “infant” and Bob has “Both”
