"To nurse, to breastfeed" is nutrire. The person who does this (a nursing mother or wet nurse) is nutrix, -icis. A person who nurtures and raises children in general (without necessarily breastfeeding them) is a nutricia, -ae.
"To nurse" in the sense of attending the sick is expressed in Classical Latin by the verb assidere, literally "to sit by". There isn't an attested noun form, but one could perhaps be coined from the present participle (meaning "sitting by"): assidens, -ntis. Another possibility is the word minister, -tri (feminine form ministra, -ae), which is literally an attendant or helper, although the religious sense of the word has become primary through the Church's use of Latin.
Perhaps surprisingly, the Romans did have a word for "female physician": medica, -ae.
