I don't know how to look for that, pre-marriage though, beyond basic competence in other tasks like you said, and staying chaste. If she can't do those, I don't know how you'd expect her to handle the long term expectations of long family, giving up immediate desires for long term family and dynasty building.
One possible way to see a woman's motherlyness ahead of time could be how she interacts with younger siblings or nephews and nieces.
