It depends on the denomination.
In some denominations, baptism is done to babies and in others only to older children or adults. It is done either by immersing the person in water or pouring water over their head. This symbolizes their being reborn in Christ and means that they are officially a Christian. Some denominations do not require baptism and others do.
Not all denominations perform confirmation. In denominations that baptize babies, confirmation typically happens later, as an older child or adult. In denominations that baptize older children and adults, confirmation usually takes place shortly after baptism. How confirmation is done and what it means varies from denomination to denomination. It is usually done by the laying on of hands, sometimes after being annointed with oil. It is seen as a sealing of the baptism or as a coming of age ceremony. Some denominations also believe that after being confirmed, a person has the right to receive spiritual gifts and personal guidance from God.
