Sorry to hear it didn't go well! My first didn't go very well either as I was completely unprepared. I am new to daycare, so I probably can't give you as good of advice as some of the more seasoned caregivers, but I have managed to fill all the spots I have and have been having to turn people away, so I could give a few tips. I'm not good at interviewing either, but what I have found helps a lot is that I have created my own website which answers many of the questions parents have beforehand; I make sure they look at it before coming so neither of us wastes our time. I also email them a copy of my contract before the interview so that they can look it over and be prepared with any questions they might have. That way there is a lot less to cover during the interview and it is a more casual meeting during which they ask a few questions and we get to know each other a bit and I can interact with the child instead of focusing on telling them everything. I also give a tour and show them around all the areas used for daycare. I hope this helps! Good luck!
