Naming Ceremonies

I will spend time getting to know your family so you can conduct a ceremony that is personal and meaningful.

Together with me, the parents discuss promises, readings, poems, rituals and music they might like.

​

During the ceremony, you, as the parents state your love and commitment to your child, acknowledge the role of family and friends, and declare hopes for your child’s future.

​

Ceremonies can be combined with symbolic actions that have meaning to your family, such as sand ceremonies, tree-planting, candle-lighting, or hand or foot-printing.

​

Celebrations may vary in length from 20 minutes to an all-day celebration.

​

Naming ceremonies are a really special moment for babies, toddlers, older children, adopted children and stepchildren.
