🥚💙 A little milestone worth celebrating... our very first coloured eggs! 💙🥚

For those who don't know, we incubate and hatch many of our own chickens right here on the farm. Over the past year we've been carefully building our very own "Easter Egg" flock – chickens that lay beautiful coloured eggs instead of the traditional white or brown.

Our dream is to eventually collect a rainbow of eggs every day... 💙 Blue, 💚 Green, 🩷 Pink and 💜 Purple.

So you can imagine our excitement when we found our very first coloured eggs in the nesting box today!

And how fitting that they were BLUE. 💙

A small egg with a big story behind it – months of planning, incubating, hatching, raising chicks and patiently waiting to see what colours our girls would gift us.

The participants were just as excited as we were, and it's another reminder that some of the best moments on the farm come from watching nature work its magic.

Now the question is... what colour will be next? 🌈🐔

Every now and then, we receive feedback that completely stops us in our tracks 💛

A parent recently sent us this message about two of our incredible team members, Mily and Chloe:

“Mily is just incredible. She is so proactive and a wealth of ideas — and not just ideas that are ‘easy’. She had so many ideas that would benefit my daughter in a positive way to build her independence and get her physically moving, whilst connecting it to things she enjoys. She is wise beyond her years, what a wonderful person she is.”

“Same goes with Chloe — from the very beginning she discussed ideas for future growth, skills to learn and work opportunities for the future. Stuff that really matters, and stuff that as a working mum, I struggle to find the time to look into. Chloe’s ideas and foresight have been amazing and she is such a positive role model.”

And then this part absolutely got us:

“You have made our lives easier and less stressful, and that matters so much.”

THIS is what quality support should feel like.

Not just “care”.
Not just ticking boxes.
But genuinely seeing people, creating opportunities, building confidence, encouraging independence, reducing stress for families, and helping young people move toward meaningful futures.

Mily and Chloe — we are SO proud of you both. The care, initiative, thoughtfulness and heart you bring into your work does not go unnoticed ✨

And while this feedback specifically mentioned Mily and Chloe, we honestly feel this reflects the culture of our entire team. We are incredibly lucky to work alongside support workers who lead with compassion, creativity, advocacy and genuine care every single day. The standard our team sets for supporting families is something we are endlessly proud of.

To the families who trust us to walk alongside you — thank you. Your words mean more than we could ever properly express 💛

Atypical was never meant to be “just another disability service.”

It was built from lived experience, heartbreak, frustration with broken systems, and a belief that people deserve better.

Better than being treated like numbers.
Better than transactional care.
Better than having behaviour managed instead of communication understood.

Behind Atypical is a story of disability, Deaf culture, advocacy, community, complex support needs, connection, burnout, resilience and a vision to create the kind of support people actually deserve.

A place where:
People come first.
Communication matters.
Connection comes before compliance.
And everyone has the right to belong.

This is the story behind Atypical Solutions.
And the reason we do things differently.

Recently at a team meeting, we asked our amazing staff a simple question:

“What makes Atypical special?”

The answers weren’t about programs, funding or service delivery.

They were words like:
Kindness - Warmth - Family - Humour - Connection - Compassion - Creativity - Inclusion - Hope - Community - Safe - Welcoming - Fun - Inspiring - Above and beyond.

What stood out most was this:

Nobody described Atypical as just a “service.”

They described it as a feeling.

A place where people feel safe to be themselves.
Where relationships matter.
Where support is human.
Where community is created through genuine connection.

It reminded us that while we absolutely focus on growth, capacity building and meaningful outcomes, the real magic of Atypical has always been the way people feel when they walk through our gates.

Seen
Welcomed
Included
Valued
Connected

And that matters!

We are so grateful for this journey and our community that walks alongside us!

We are keen to hear your thoughts. What do you think makes Atypical special? Leave us a comment below
