Baptisms, Christenings and Naming Ceremonies

What is a Baptism/Christening or Naming Ceremony?

Traditional, non-Traditional, Spiritual or other, I offer many different types of readings and services which I gladly share with you.  You are also welcome to help craft your own ceremony.

Baptisms and Naming Ceremonies are a very special way of celebrating the birth of your child and welcoming the new arrival into the family and the wider community. It is also ideally suited to welcome and celebrate an adoptive child into the family or to embrace stepchildren into a new family; a perfect way to help bond a family unit.

It is an opportunity to declare before family and friends, your promises to be as good a parent as you can, and for adult friends or relatives to confirm their special relationship with your child.

Baptisms and Christenings are religious sacraments or spiritual ceremonies and Naming Ceremonies are civil ceremonies.  During either celebration, the child receives a name and the parents pledge themselves to provide a good and loving environment for their child.
