Do Vomiting, Diarrhea And Low Appetite In Infants Need Medical Attention?

Hello, I am watching my 12 month old grand daughter today. She had a bout of vomiting and diarrhea last week, lasting 24 hrs. Today she is without fever, does not have much of an appetite and passed a soft, formed, clay colored stool. Any reason to be alarmed?
