Her nurse is like a mother to her. Her mother is not close to her at all. We see this in Act One, where Lady Capulet sends the nurse away so she can talk to Juliet about marrying issues, then realizes in a panic that she and Juliet are like strangers, and calls the nurse back.

∙ 12y agoThe difference between the Nurse and Juliet's mother is that the Nurse is more of the "real" mother than Lady Capulet is. This is because the Nurse was Juliet's nurse (obviously), and had more of a connection between Juliet than Lady Capulet. The Nurse treats Juliet as her own daughter, because her real daughter, Susan, had already died. Lady Capulet is more concerned about how Juliet affects her status, more than actually caring about her.

∙ 8y agoWhen Juliet was a baby, her mother did not want to feed her with the milk from her own breasts. They had no such thing as store-bought formula, so Mrs. Capulet hired a woman who had just had a baby to feed Juliet her breast milk. This woman was the Nurse (that's what it means "to nurse"). Juliet ate the Nurse's breast milk until she was about three years old, and that made a strong bond between them. Even after Juliet was weaned (stopped drinking breast milk), the Nurse was kept on as the servant who was especially responsible for Juliet. She still has this job eleven years later. It is natural, therefore, that Juliet is much closer to the Nurse, who has been doing all the mothering, than to her mother, who is practically a stranger to her.
