Most Christians are baptised as babies, when they are too young to undertake responsibilities and obligations. Some denominations delay baptism until adulthood, and in those cases the pastor will explain the responsibilities and obligations the church is asking the initiate to undertake.
what we profess as baptized christian
You can go to church and not be baptized, but to be recognized as a Christian to the church you have to be baptized.
As a baptized Christian you profess your faith in Jesus.
Baptism is symbolic of religious faith, although even this is symbolic in the case of infant baptism. So baptism does not confer obligations and responsibilities beyond those you freely choose to take on.

There isn't a definite age that Christians are baptized. In some denominations, they are baptized as babies. In others, they are baptized usually around high school age, but are not limited to that age. For Christians who are baptized later and not as babies, it is a matter of personal decision, each person has a different time that they feel 'ready' to be baptized and declare their faith.
Christians believe that being baptized means that you have been united with the holy spirit, as a result, you will make it into heaven because you have the spirit in you. There is no age limit for being baptized, but most people get baptized as babies.

All Christians are baptized as the Bible commands. The question is at what point of their lives do they get baptized - as an infant, 'coming of age' or as a responsible adult. Suggest reading Acts 2:38-41.
No. As Christians, we believe in 'one baptism for the remission of sins.' You cannot be baptized twice. As long as you were baptized using the formula: "....I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit," then your baptism was perfectly valid and it does not need to be repeated.
