Hello,
If hoarseness of voice is an acute phenomenon, then you need not worry about it as it could be a viral laryngitis which is a self limiting condition.
But if this hoarseness is since birth then you need to consider two possibilities:
1. Congenital laryngomalaycia
2. Hypothyroidism
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Sumanth Amperayani
