The Minnesota baby will appear in Gerber campaigns and social posts after winning a $50,000 prize and a Gerber Childrenswear wardrobe.
On Tuesday, Gerber announced Cameron Chung of Minnesota as the 2026 Gerber Baby, selected from thousands of nationwide entries celebrating everyday moments of parenthood.
This year's 'Gerber Photo Search: Behind the Baby' focused on honoring parents, with Gerber President Oscar Benitez stating the goal was to celebrate 'the unglamorous yet profoundly beautiful work of raising a family.'
Cameron's mother, Rachael Olsen, stated that navigating a colicky newborn was 'incredibly tough,' but seeing his first smile on a cold Minnesota day made the exhaustion worth it.
Cameron and his family will receive a $50,000 prize and a $2,000 Gerber Childrenswear wardrobe, while being featured in marketing campaigns throughout the year.
Gerber also introduced the 'Get 'ems! from Gerber' category for children ages 3 to 5, crowning Jolene 'Joey' Rider of California as its first winner with a $10,000 prize.
