Jacinda Ardern has been making waves since her arrival as New Zealand's Prime Minister almost a year ago.
She is the youngest woman in the country for a century and a half, and one of three women to hold this position. Ardern is the second head of government to give birth during his term (after the Pakistani Benazir Bhutto). And after the arrival of her daughter, Neve, she took six weeks of maternity leave, entrusting the management of her position to her deputy.
Now, it's time for little Neve to make history. At just three months, she would be the youngest person to attend the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
Time magazine reports that Ardern flew to New York with partner Clarke Gayford and Neve, giving a speech Monday night at the Nelson Mandela Peace Summit, while Neve was nested in the front row.
Gayford posted a photo on Twitter of Neve's safety pass, which read "Baby First".
In his Tweet he said, "I would have liked to be able to catch the surprised look on the Japanese delegation to the UN yesterday that went into a meeting room in the middle of a diaper change".
Because everyone on Twitter asked to see Neve's UN ID, the staff whipped one.

A new rule in New Zealand allows any government minister with a baby to travel with a nanny or caregiver at the expense of the government. Despite this, Ardern told the New Zealand Herald that she was not expecting taxpayers to pay the bill for Gayford's trip while he's busy with Neve.
"There is no program for the spouses, so we just said we would cover his trip for this trip, he will go to some things, but he travels mainly to take care of Neve," she told the newspaper. . Herald.
We do not know if Neve will participate in other official events in New York. Ardern told the Herald, they "played in the ear".
