Babies' routine (when eat, drink, sleep, poop)
dummy, how to comfort, are they tactile, any comforters (blanki, teddy)
how they like to go down to sleep (cuddle, straight down, rocked)
what scares them, what they find funny/delightful
Good luck hun

Good advice from Pip
Let the parents guide you if you dont like speaking much - ask them to tell you about their little one and ask questions then from the things that they tell you
Just be yourself you will be fine
Good luck
