BLOSSOMING BUMP MANDURAH
Continuity of Care
At Blossoming Bump Clinic, experienced Endorsed Midwives provide personalised and comprehensive care throughout your pregnancy and postnatal journey. The team supports you with hospital bookings, pathology requests, pregnancy blood tests, ultrasounds and routine antenatal appointments, while monitoring both your physical and emotional wellbeing and your baby’s development.
A GP referral is not required, making it easy to access care from the beginning of your pregnancy. Care is woman-centred, evidence-based and focused on keeping you informed and confident throughout your pregnancy and birth.
Following the birth of your baby, Blossoming Bump continues to provide postnatal support, including breastfeeding and infant-feeding assistance. Bulk-billed lactation consultations are available, with private consultations also offered for babies over six weeks of age.
Collaboration with Dr Van Der Merwe
Blossoming Bump works in collaboration with Dr Van Der Merwe, a local GP Obstetrician, as part of your maternity care. You will have two appointments with Dr Van Der Merwe during your pregnancy, and he will be your named doctor when you are admitted to hospital.
This collaborative approach allows your midwifery and medical teams to work together, providing continuity of care and support throughout your pregnancy, birth and hospital stay.
Location & Fees
Pregnancy care is provided at Blossoming Bump, 275B Pinjarra Road, Mandurah WA 6210.

Hospital and Doctor Fees
Hospital fees and any fees charged by your doctor are separate from Blossoming Bump’s appointment fees and will incur additional charges. These fees vary depending on the provider and services received. Please contact the relevant hospital or doctor directly for information about their fees.
Private Health Insurance
If you have private health insurance, we recommend contacting your health fund before commencing care to check whether your policy covers midwifery and lactation services and whether any rebates are available.
Although we are not directly affiliated with private health funds, we will provide you with a receipt after each appointment that you can submit to your health fund for consideration of a rebate. Any rebate will depend on your individual policy and level of cover.
