Karoline Leavitt, 28, the youngest White House Press Secretary in history, has given fans an intimate look at her life on maternity leave as she adjusts to life with her second child.

The proud mom shared an adorable Instagram Story showing her toddler son Niko planting a gentle kiss on his newborn sister Viviana’s head, just days after the baby’s arrival on May 1. Swaddled in a pink onesie, baby Viviana was surrounded by love as Niko, dressed in blue car-print pajamas, leaned over a fluffy gray blanket to shower his little sister with affection.

“She is here, and she is perfect,” Leavitt wrote, sharing photos of herself cradling Vivi in her nursery. “Our hearts instantly exploded with love. She is healthy, and Niko is joyfully embracing his role as a big brother. We are savoring every moment in our blissful newborn bubble.”

Leavitt first revealed the pregnancy in December, calling it “the greatest Christmas gift” for her and husband Nicholas Riccio, 60. The couple eagerly anticipated their baby girl while celebrating the joy of watching Niko step into his new role.

Throughout the pregnancy, Leavitt expressed gratitude for prayers and support, noting, “I truly felt them throughout the entire experience. God is good.” Her social media posts, full of tender family moments, have delighted fans, capturing the warmth, love, and excitement of welcoming a second child.

With 2026 proving to be a year of firsts—Leavitt became the first White House Press Secretary to give birth while in office—her family’s joy shines brightly through every shared snapshot, from kisses exchanged to teddy bears marked “I’m the big brother.”
