Yes, it will be a valid baptism.
From a Catholic point of view, technically all Protestant clergy are laypeople. Of course Catholics recognize that these people are the proper and appointed ministers within Protestant communities, but sacramentally the Church doesn’t think a Protestant minister can do anything a Protestant layperson couldn’t do. And a layperson can baptize (though in Catholicism, that would only happen in an emergency).
Yup! Although, its still kind of weird. I mean, I’m catholic and no one else is, so they’re all going to have my grandfather do it sometime soon.
 
Just be careful… we do not need a Westboro or any other family church, which may really test your Catholic faith. This is based on your reaction your mother has.

Do keep us updated, but be prepare to depart from your family if needed.
