He says he is protestant, but that's all.

then in that case
the baptism is up to the child, but when (s)he becomes an adult.

Actually it depends on what protestant denomination he is. I'm Presbyterian, and we are baptised usually as children and then have a confirmation as teens/adults when we formally join the church. As children our parents are promising to raise us in the faith and as a teens (I was 17) we promise to lead Christian lives.
So I would suggest your uncle and the childs mother (your aunt?) invstigate this for themselves. Their minister can tell him what their church practices.

Your uncle shouldn't have anything to do with it.
His child should be baptised when he accepts the Lord as his savior.

He shouldn't! Baptism is only for born again believers in the Lord Jesus Christ. Any one who is not born again is not a candidate for baptism. Please check this out in the Bible.
