...the RCC doesn't recognize Baptist baptisms...

You're going to have to source that... good luck.

... and the Baptists don't recognize RCC baptisms...

This is true.

...and I wonder if the RCC recognize other Baptisms (I don't know that answer).

The Church doesn't "rebaptize" those who have been baptized in the Trinitarian formula.

I think in my church, that we WOULD recognize an RCC baptism if it were an adult believer’s baptism (of course in the RCC, it WOULD be Trinitarian), and if the individual is certain that at the point of their adult baptism that they had come to a saving faith in Jesus Christ.

We wouldn’t ‘recognize’ an infant baptism, though.

Disclaimer:

I go to an independent non-denominational evangelical Protestant church.
