Baptism is a ceremony carried out by a member of the church (the pop or the vicar). They dab the sign of the cross onto your forehead with holy water taken from the Font. People get baptiseed because they believe by being baptised they are following in Jesus's footsteps. Also they are joined to the church by being baptised.

Who baptized john the Baptist's mum?

John the baptist' mother was never baptised at all until her son John baptised Jesus Christ (the first person to be baptised), it was only then that people decided to come up and be baptised. It never says in the bible if John's mother was baptised or not but she probably was. People got baptised at a much older age back then compared to today's tradition of getting baptised between the age of 0 and 3)
