This study will evaluate a newly developed device, Q. Basin. The Q. Basin is a multifunctional, single patient use device that can sanitize breast pump parts, bottles, and reusable feeding devices for patients admitted under one year of age. Improving the current sanitation method would provide a quick and efficient sanitation process for breast pump parts. This study will compare the Q. Basin to the current method of steam bag sanitation.
Firstly, 10 participant's breast pump parts are collected, divided, washed, and dried before comparing the two methods of steam sanitation. We will test to compare the safety of the Q. Basin compared to the current method of steam bag sanitation. We will collect participant's breast pump parts and complete surface swab testing for bacteria and mold immediately after sanitation and additionally 24 hours later.
Secondly, 20 participant questionnaires will measure satisfaction ratings of participants pumping human milk for hospitalized infants using two different wash, dry and steam sanitation methods. This study design will determine if participant satisfaction improves with breast pump part sanitation using the Q. Basin, compared to the current steam sanitization bag method.

Inclusion Criteria:
Exclusion Criteria:
Mothers who are pumping human milk for hospitalized infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Not provided
In the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, mothers who wish to pump human milk for their hospitalized infant do so with an electric breast pump. All 10 breast pump parts are used to pump human milk 8-10 times a day. After each pumping session, breast pump parts that contact human milk are washed and air-dried thoroughly until next use. Once a day, clean pump parts are placed in a sanitation bag and steam sanitized in the microwave.
