MEET THE TEAM
Liz Mercer
Endorsed Midwife
Founder of Blossoming Bump
Welcome to Blossoming Bump. I’m a mother of four, a Clinical Midwife at Peel Health Campus, and an Endorsed Midwife. I’m also proud to be the founder and creator of Blossoming Bump and Blossoming Bump Boutique.
My midwifery journey began in the UK, where I trained and worked in a busy maternity hospital delivering over 9,000 babies each year. Over the years, I have gained extensive experience across all areas of midwifery care, supporting women in a variety of birth settings — from high-risk tertiary care through to low-risk home births.
My own experiences with pregnancy and birth have profoundly shaped my approach to maternity care. Each of my pregnancies and births has been completely unique, with my first pregnancy being twins — an experience that inspired my career in midwifery. My most recent birth was a deeply empowering home birth with my daughter, Emily. Feeling truly informed and supported throughout that pregnancy allowed me to achieve a vaginal birth after two caesarean sections, further strengthening my passion for pregnancy education and informed birth choices.
Blossoming Bump was established in early 2019 with a vision to provide women and families in the Peel region with evidence-based, supportive, and enjoyable childbirth education. The overwhelmingly positive feedback from families attending our classes inspired me to expand the services I offer, creating the Blossoming Bump community that exists today.
At Blossoming Bump, my goal is to ensure every woman feels educated, empowered, and confidently supported throughout pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood.
Tracy Talbot
Endorsed Midwife & Lactation Consultant
I am an Endorsed Midwife with a passion for supporting women and families throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postnatal period. Originally from England, I have proudly called Australia home for many years.
After qualifying as a midwife in 2006, I continued my professional development by completing additional training to become both an Endorsed Midwife and a Lactation Consultant. This allows me to provide comprehensive, evidence-based care tailored to each family’s individual needs.
I previously worked at Rockingham Hospital as both a Midwife and Lactation Consultant, where I gained extensive experience supporting families with infant feeding, breastfeeding challenges, and postnatal care.
As a proud mother of two grown sons, I understand firsthand the transformative journey of motherhood and the importance of compassionate support during this special time.
Outside of work, I enjoy travelling and spending time with my much-loved dog, Ivy.
I have been a valued member of the Blossoming Bump team for the past four years and am deeply committed to providing warm, personalised, and supportive care to every family I work with.
Michelle Price
Endorsed Midwife
Wife, Mum, Nanna… and Midwife for over 20 years.
My journey into midwifery began with the incredible care and support I received during my own pregnancies. The kindness, reassurance, and compassion shown to me during that time inspired the level of care I now strive to provide to every woman and family I support.
I am deeply passionate about antenatal care and feel privileged to walk alongside women during one of the most exciting — and sometimes overwhelming — chapters of their lives. Supporting, educating, and empowering women to feel confident in their pregnancy, birth, and parenting choices is truly at the heart of what I do.
Over the years, I have had the privilege of working across Peel Health Campus, Rockingham General Hospital, and Armadale Hospital. These experiences have shaped me into the midwife I am today and have strengthened my commitment to providing compassionate, woman-centred care.
I believe every family deserves to feel heard, informed, respected, and empowered throughout their pregnancy and birth journey.
