Y would u want to pray t anyone else beside the Lord Jesus Christ Himself? He paid a horrible price taking your place on th cross & dying 4 you in order that God Himself could have a personal relationship with you. Now u can go boldly to the throne of Grace in times of need
It never says to baptize babies. They dedicated them at the time circumcision. When you dedicate babies the parents are promising God that they will raise them for Him. Baptism is not what saves us. Repentance & acceptance of Christ finished work on the cross by faith saves us

1 Peter 3:21 "Baptism now SAVES you"

This baptism that Peter is speaking about has nothing to do with water. This is the baptism into Christ which takes place at conversion. It is done by faith n has nothing to do with water baptism although the water baptism serves as a symbol. Romans 6:3-5

Clearly, Jesus finds water very important in His Sacrament if Baptism.

Of course but Jesus uses the word baptism in a few different ways all symbolic of His death, burial and resurrection and people dying to their flesh and living as a new creation in Christ.

At what age do you think it's proper to be baptized then?

When a child or adult understands sin, repentance and forgiveness, willingly desires to ask Jesus 4 forgiveness of their sins & sinful ways, asks Him into their life as Lord & Savior n ready as much as they understand to commit their life to Him. Then baptism. Acts 2:38

So, what happens if they die before that age?
-
If they don’t understand they r not accountable and they go to heaven
