Summary

Parents and daycare providers for children between the ages of 1 and 3 years old at participating daycares will be asked to join this study. Parents will be provided with three thermoses designed to keep breastmilk at a safe temperature for 15+ hours, and asked to use each thermos for four weeks. Parents and daycare providers will be asked to complete weekly questionnaires about any problems they experience with a thermos. Study staff will check the temperature of the milk each day before lunch and afternoon snack to ensure the milk is at a safe temperature for consumption.
