I'm not entirely sure that I understand what you are asking-- but to me, the nurse represents the idealic mother Juliet should of had. The kind and compassionate kind of person her real mother should have been. She sort of mirrors Juliet's desire for a connection to her mother.

Alright, a dramatic foil consists of two characters with opposite traits and strongly contrast one another.
Juliet’s nurse, the woman who breast-fed Juliet when she was a baby and has cared for Juliet her entire life, is a vulgar, long-winded, and sentimental character. She provides comic relief with her frequently inappropriate remarks and speeches, but, until a disagreement near the play’s end, the Nurse is Juliet’s faithful confidante and loyal intermediary in Juliet’s affair with Romeo. She provides a contrast with Juliet, given that her view of love is earthy and sexual, whereas Juliet is idealistic and intense. The Nurse believes in love and wants Juliet to have a nice-looking husband, but the idea that Juliet would want to sacrifice herself for love is incomprehensible to her.

Romeo's friend would insult the nurse for Juliette as she passed through the courtyard carrying messages from Juiliette to Romeo. Her name was Nursey Mama.

This is the 4th question you've posted about a play that you OBVIOUSLY haven't read.
Do your own homework.
