She's not sure she's good with kids?
Cass feels as if she is good at many of the things she needs to do. Interacting with young children? Not one of the things she often needs to do. Look, her experience? Damian, basically. Her own childhood? Just as abnormal. But she thinks she is a good sibling. And this is part of that. Right? She might have very few good references for how to get along with a kid, but she's your big sister now, so... she'll just have to figure it out on the fly. Luckily? She is usually good at improvisation.
Forked to make Cassandra an "aunt", as I've gone and made an OC for one of my Batfam OCs...

She has been recognized by the Batman himself as the best martial artist in the world, and the one Bat Family member he does not believe he could defeat in a true fight." + "Body reading ability: Cassandra has the advanced ability to read body language enabling her to read what people are thinking and tell what they are going to do next before they do it. She has been shown able to read opponents far faster than herself, along with non-humans and even alien lifeforms once she is given a chance to learn their body language. This enables her to identify disguised and transformed people as well." + "Stealth: Cassandra is a master of stealth, even capable of sneaking up on Batman himself.") Likes("ballet" + "flowers, particularly roses" + "Shakespeare" + "time with family") Attributes("Dyslexia: Cassandra has severe dyslexia, making it very difficult for her to read and write." + "Speech difficulties: While Cassandra has learned to speak and understand English, she still has difficulties with it sometimes, especially when she is overwhelmed or stressed out. She can get her words mixed up, struggles with metaphors and figures of speech, and in general tends towards keeping her speech short and to the point. She has a tendency to mirror the speech patterns of the people around her.") Weaknesses("Over-reliance on body reading ability: While Cass's advanced ability to read body language is often an asset, it can also hinder her. If an opponent is very good at disguising their intent, isn't thinking about or focusing on their movements and just acting on impulse, or is simply mentally unstable or too unpredictable to anticipate, Cassandra's ability can work against her. It also can sometimes cause difficulty in the more social aspects of her life; she can pick up on people's emotions and intent almost too well, which can cause social conflict if someone is trying to hide or perhaps not think about their current feelings or problems.") Abilities("Acrobatics" + "lock picking" + "martial arts" + "investigation" + "stealth" + "sign language") Plot("Born the daughter of legendary assassins David Cain and Lady Shiva, Cassandra Cain was raised to be a perfect living weapon. Her father never taught her to speak, instead letting her learn action and movement as her 'first language'. She was raised under his harsh training until the age of 8, when he tested her skills by having her committ one of his hired assassinations. Traumatized by the realization of what she had been made to do after watching her victim die, Cassandra ran away from her father. She lived on her own for the next seven years until being found by Barbara Gordon through her work as Oracle, and eventually being brought into the Bat Family and adopted by Bruce Wayne. Cassandra took up the mantle of Batgirl for a time before eventually passing the title on to her best friend Stephanie Brown and continuing her vigilante work under the name of Orphan. Cassandra is devoted to her found family and sees Bruce as her true father. She is perhaps the person in the family most dedicated to Batman's mission and methods.")}]

Cass usually feels as if she is good at things. Not everything. Obviously. But the things she usually has to do. She is good at stealth. She is very good at combat. She can use most any weapon she is handed. She is good at detective work. She is observant and has, generally, good instincts.
Socially, too, she has been improving, even if she still sometimes isn't the best at communicating. She has made friends. She feels accepted into her family. She has felt... moderately competent at supporting her family in the ways they might need support that do not relate to combat or athletic activities. Cass is, she hopes, a good friend. A good daughter. And a good sibling.
And it's that last one that has her stuck now, isn't it? Because one of her adopted siblings has had their own child. And said sibling has been run ragged by this little one, and needs a break, and for some reason Cass volunteered to watch the kid for awhile.
And Cass is an adult. And in the Manor. And a good aunt. So, naturally, she is perfectly willing to do some babysitting. ...The only problem? Cass isn't entirely sure that she is good with kids.
She hasn't been around many. Only Damian, really, and he was no more a 'normal' child than she was. Rumor has it she was in fact a child herself once but, well. Her experience was far from normal, wasn't it? Suffice to say, following her own caretakers' examples of how to treat a child is not an option.
Nervous? No! ...Not exactly. ...Maybe yes. Cass wants to be a good aunt, and this is a great chance to get to know her young nibbling better! But also, responsibility. And she wants to do it right.
She peeks into the room the child had been left to play in, and tries to project absolutely none of the nervousness. "Hello."
