"Rejoice with your family in the beautiful land of life!"

Albert Einstein

Children and Families

There are many types of ceremonies for families and children, including:

  • baby namings and welcomings,
  • ceremonies for adoptive families,
  • coming of age celebrations for adolescents,
  • ceremonies marking birthdays,
  • anniversaries,
  • graduations,
  • family reunions and more.

I can help you create a memorable celebration for your special occasion. 

Welcoming Ceremonies for new family members, whether by birth, adoption or marriage, have existed in virtually every culture and country. Publicly marking the entry of new members into our families is perhaps one of the most joyous celebrations we can share, and acknowledging our responsibilities to our children one of the most serious commitments we can undertake.

Coming of Age Ceremonies have played a vital role in all cultures throughout civilization.  Today they remain relevant, taking on an increasingly important significance in young peoples’ lives. 

 Coming-of-age ceremonies are typically for youth ranging in age from 12-16. These are the years where they begin the transition toward adulthood – experiencing physical and psychological changes in their lives. 

Ceremony can play a vital role in guiding your teenager through this transition, as s/he takes on more mature responsibilities in the family and society. Your youth’s input in designing a ceremony meaningful to him or her is vital.
