Help baby Daniel bring help to others

My name is Paradise Roblero, and I’m reaching out because my son, Daniel, is competing in the 2026 Baby of the Year contest — and his journey has become about so much more than a title.

Daniel is currently No. 1 in the Top 15 of his group, and we are working hard to keep him there. The contest raises awareness and funds for Baby2Baby, a nonprofit organization that provides children living in poverty with essential items such as diapers, formula, clothing, hygiene products and other necessities.

As his mom, I’ve been overwhelmed by the support our community has already shown Daniel. What started as a fun opportunity for my baby has turned into something I truly believe can make a difference for other children and families.

If Daniel is fortunate enough to win, our goal is to use the prize money to help turn a dream of mine into reality: creating an affordable Parents’ Day Out program for local families in the Harrison Bay area.
