This is similar to the issue in How to install python application with tkcalendar module by pyinstaller?

Indeed, after looking into auto-py-to-exe, I realized that this is just a GUI around PyInstaller. Therefore the solution is the same, you need to pass babel.numbers to the --hidden-import option, in the Advanced section in the GUI.
