∙ 16y agoAny Catholic of good standing can be a godparent though there are the following exceptions/requirements: There may only be two godparents, one of each sex. Non-catholics cannot be godparents, nor those under the age of 13, nor can the father, the mother, or the spouse, of the person who is to be baptized. A godparent cannot marry their godchild unless given a dispensation.
In liberal parishes, sometimes the priest allows a non-catholic to be a godparent, or fails to verify the faith of those presented as godparents. This is a modern trend and is against Church teaching and the entire purpose of having godparents, for a godparent enters into a spiritual relationship with the baptized and is responsible for helping them grow in their Faith which they cannot do if they themselves do not know it.

∙ 9y agoThe Sacrament of Baptism is ordinarily conferred by a bishop, priest, or a deacon with the faculties to do so; however, in the case of an emergency laypersons (with the right intentions) may baptize provided an infant or adult is in danger of dying before a priest can be procured, any other person, whether man, woman, or child my baptize in the following manner:
While pouring common water on the head or face of the person, pronounce this verse:
I baptize you in the name of The Father, and of The Son, and of The Holy Spirit. Amen.
For a more in depth review I would recommend you have a look at the Catechism Of The Catholic Church section 1256.
