Baby Namings

Children represent our future and the light in our world.

Celebrate the life of your beautiful child by having me create for you a special baby naming ceremony.

Mark the event by having family and friends come together to send this new child forth on the journey of life.

Our lives are the legacies of those who have gone before us and we acknowledge the ancestors of this child.

A name is very important. It distinguishes us from others and gives us a sense of belonging in our family and community. Why have you chosen this name for your child?

Parents state their love and commitment to their child, and acknowledge the role of family and friends. The baby’s life guides promise to be an enduring presence in the life of the child.

The more people the child feels connected to, as life progresses, the richer and more confident their growth will be along their unique path in life.

The warmest thanks from beautiful people.

“Margaret, Your ceremony was absolutely magical. You explained each step – your voice was so calm, and your words so kind. I loved that you our child’s dual heritage was woven together beautifully. Her Life Guides commitments and ours to her will be presented to her on her 18th birthday. Thank you for a memorable and moving Naming Ceremony for our beloved daughter.”

“Thank you so much Margaret for creating such a beautiful baby naming service for Jack. It was very moving for us to say aloud our commitments to him. It was a great idea also to have his life guides write their promises to him. We will have them printed and present them to him when he gets older. The grandparents and wider family and friends were delighted with Jack’s special naming ceremony.
Heartfelt thanks.”

I would highly recommend Margaret as she has some beautiful suggestions and is always very responise if you have any questions. The ceremony couldn’t have gone any better as many of our guests remarked on. Thanks again.”
