About Neiko

Neiko was born on October 8, 2023 in Rochester, NY. He spent two weeks in the NICU right after birth, and was a quiet and patient baby throughout. He came out strong and healthy. Throughout his five and a half months, Neiko was an extraordinarily happy and cheery baby, who laughed easily and often. He thought it was the best joke when his papa would simply walk toward him—it would crack him up. He loved his doggie pal, Shorty, and gave him pats on the head. In recent days, he favoured his dolphin plushy “Dahlia” and reading books with his mama. He listened with enjoyment to his papa’s Ukrainian music.

He was a gift and his parents’ greatest blessing. Good-bye little bug.
