What is the difference between a Catholic and Protestant Baptism of the Dedication of babies?

Binyag or catholiscm baptism is done as soon as possible on the subject's life (infants and babies), while the Protestants, baptism is usually done when a person is old enough to absorb the lessons and gospels that was preached to him, and is capable of maintaining their own faith. However, there are a number of Protestant denominations, some of which differ in the dogmas and practices.
  Protestants in the dedication of babies are said to be inspired by what Jesus has done with newborn babies and children who were brought to him (Matthew 19:13-15), the counterpart of the Catholic baptism of the babies.

    Baptism is seen as a Catholic baptism and confirmation later in the child's life is basically in agreement with the child baptism.
      The Protestant is the dedication of parents saying that the intention of raising the child in a Christian way, so that he / she will decide on its own to get baptized. In the Protestant faith who are not officially named until it makes its own decision to do so.

    I am neither Catholic nor Protestant. With regard to baptism, we do not do this ritual. I mean, we have a baptism, but only for those who have studied the Bible, have understood the meaning or significance of baptism and are committed to doing God's work. We do not baptize our babies. BTW, I am a Jehovah's Witness.
