Abstract: An apparatus for feeding an infant in a vertical position is described. The apparatus includes a shoulder support component and a flexible component. The shoulder support component generally has a U-shape with a first side disposed opposite a second side. The second side of the shoulder support component is configured to contact shoulders of a caregiver. The flexible component has a first end disposed opposite a second end. The first end of the flexible component is affixed to the first side of the shoulder support component and the second end includes a bottle holding portion that supports a bottle for feeding an infant in a vertical position.

Abstract: A system is described herein. The system includes at least a computing device and an occupation device. The computing device includes an engine and a graphical user interface (GUI). The occupation deice is affixed to a car seat in a vehicle. The occupation device is configured to determine a presence or an absence of a child in the car seat. Specifically, the occupation device includes electrical components and a laser component comprising at least a laser beam that exits a body component of the occupation device at a location. When the laser beam is uninterrupted, the electrical components are configured to transmit a first alert to the engine of the computing device for display to a user via the GUI. When the laser beam is interrupted, the electrical components are configured to transmit a second alert to the engine of the computing device for display to the user via the GUI.
