Meet the Team

  • Tiffany Bard

    FOUNDER

    Founder Tiffany Marie Troiano-Bard, is a third generation Italian-American with a keen eye for design inherited from her grandmother Rose Troiano, a 1940’s custom designer for figure-skating champions, Sonja Henie and Donna Atwood. 

    While working on Wall Street during her first pregnancy, Tiffany became increasingly frustrated with ill-fitting, poorly-made, and style-less maternity wear.  This experience led her to design her own work attire and later expand the collection that has sold online for over 8 years.  Both of her kids, Aston (now 6) and Arabella (now 4) were 10lbs at birth!  Tiffany prides herself on helping other women feel confident and comfortable during their transition to motherhood.  Upon moving to Nashville in '21 she identified a need for an in-person maternity shopping experience, otherwise know as Bump City Nashville.  The flagship store carries a wide variety of brands and styles and welcomes expectant mothers (and their families) from the both local community and those visiting from across the country.
