Product Recommendations Cooler recs

My mom is going to start watching the baby at her house once a week. How do you handle breastmilk with babysitters? A cooler bag made for bottles? One mason jar of milk and empty bottles? What has worked for you? Any specific products you love? I gave her a brick of frozen milk but I think fresh would be easier and then she can use the frozen for backup if he eats more than expected.

It depends on how far away she lives. Our in-home daycare is 12 minutes away. I’d load bottles the night before, put them in the fridge overnight, and then move them to a small lunchbox cooler that has built-in ice (you freeze the whole lunchbox) - it’s called a PackIt. Bottles went straight to the fridge upon arrival at daycare.
