The Nurse and her relationship with Juliet in William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet
Throughout the play the Nurse continually appears. At the beginning of
the play the relationship is clear. From the outset and throughout the
play the trust, protection, willingness, mischief, and loving care of
the Nurse are shown.
The Nurse has a lot of affection for Juliet. She plays more of a
mother figure to Juliet than her natural mother does, Lady Capulet.
The Nurse has nursed her all her life. The Nurse has been within the
Capulet household for at least fourteen years, the entirety of
Juliet's life. As Juliet grows up, she still plays an important role
in her life. The Nurse was actually Juliet's wet nurse, and it is
proven that a bond between a baby and one who feeds it is very strong.
The Nurse had a daughter of her own, Susan. She was born on the exact
same day as Juliet; she unfortunately died leaving the nurse very
distraught. When she got the job of looking after Juliet she was at
last contented. Juliet was like her own daughter; she took the place
of Susan. This shows that the nurse is quite an affectionate
character. She continuously looks out for Juliet. It also shows that
the nurse is quite caring; taking on the job of a full time nurse is
hard. However, she shows love continuously. Although the Nurse is
Juliet's servant, the attitude of that is hidden. The relationship
between the pair is so close that the idea of the Nurse being Juliet's
servant is hidden.

and she seeks help elsewhere.
The Nurse suggests that Juliet should forget about Romeo and marry
Paris. She loses
Juliet's confidence, and trust. Juliet decides to seek the help of
Friar Laurence; thereafter she no longer involves the Nurse in her
secret Plans.
That is the last scene in which we see the Nurse. Throughout the play,
she appears, however when she loses Juliet's trust, she is lost from
the play.
The Nurse plays a critical role in Romeo and Juliet. Her relationship
with major characters and her part in the secretive romance of the two
lovers cause the play's actions to move quickly and in a powerful way.
The Nurse acts as Shakespeare's pawn to guide the events of the play
in a dramatic manner.
The Nurse is more influential than Lady Capulet in Juliet’s life, and she even contributes to the death of Juliet.
