Baby happiness! Daniella Karagach and husband Pasha Pashkov were in love with their daughter, Nikita, from the moment she was born in May 2023.

The Dancing with the stars pros announced in November 2022 that Karagach was pregnant with their first child.

“Baby Pashkov is coming May 23,” the then-pregnant dancer wrote via Instagram, sharing a photo of the couple wearing a pair of tiny sneakers. “We love you more than words can ever express.”

The following month, Karagach showed off her growing belly during her little one’s “red carpet debut” when she attended an event for the Women’s Guild Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles. The Latin dancer celebrated her 30th birthday in December 2022 – combining the bash with a reveal party.

The professional dancers, who tied the knot in July 2014, continued to update their fans ahead of their little one’s arrival on May 30, 2023. A day after Nikita’s birth, the proud parents shared their baby’s first photos with the world.

The series of snapshots, posted through Instagram, including a close-up of the newborn sleeping in a mauve swaddle. She was also photographed sleeping on her father’s chest in the hospital room and in her mother’s arms.

“We are in love♥️ Thank you for choosing us to be your parents, Nikita🙌,” Pashkov wrote a recap video from June 2023 via Instagram of their first week as a family of three. The clip was set to The Beatles’ “Here Comes the Sun”. Karagach wrote in the comments, “Crying 💜 Love our little fam so much.”

That same month, the New York native documented the “first hike as a family of 3and went on to share the process with her social media followers.

“Last week we took our first walk. Nikita (aka Kita, Kiki, Keeks) slept all the time ☺️,” she captioned the carousel of photos. “We absolutely love this pushchair and its big wheels. It makes our walks so smooth🙌 Our walks are my absolute favorite and now with our little bestie they are better than ever.”

Pashkov, meanwhile, joked via Instagram in June 2023 that he “learned so much from watching F•R•I•E•N•D•S 😂”, including a wacky ritual to help Nikita have sweet dreams. The Russian dancer revealed in a fun video that “when your baby girl has bad dreams” he chooses to use Phoebe Buffay’s (Lisa Koedrow) “technique” of drawing the air around her to “clean the aura”.
