The Importance of Being Present
Having presence in developmental support work is more than showing up or completing checkbox tasks. It’s a deliberate, attentive, and compassionate engagement with people who rely on consistent encounters as they navigate their daily lives in meaningful ways. In this context, presence is a mindset and a practice. Emotional availability, active, listening, and genuine commitment to understanding the person, improves quality of care, deepens trust, and helps them thrive.
