Qrow specifically made mentions of the Spring Maiden being part of Ravens tribe in this interaction from "Family":

Qrow: Well, you've certainly got someone strong on your side. I've seen the damage.

Raven: (turning away) We couldn't have known the Grimm would set in as quickly as they did.

Qrow: I'm not talking about the Grimm.

Still not facing Qorw, Raven looks up, eyes widening slightly at his words.

Qrow: And I'm not talking about you, either.

Raven: If you don't know where the relic is, then we have nothing left to talk about.

As she reaches for her mask, Qrow grabs onto the top of it.

Qrow: I don't know where the Spring Maiden is, either, but if you do, I need you to tell me.

Raven: And why would I do that? (pulling her mask out of Qrow's grasp)

Qrow: Because without her, we're all going to die.

A moment of tense silence passes between them as a nearby lantern dies out.

Raven: (scoffing) And which "we" are you referring to?

That's why it's so widely accepted that she has the Spring Maiden with her. The only thing that is off about that theory is that people seem to be going 'Oh, Spring is rebirth and new life so the Spring Maiden has healing powers' when literally every girl in the original story got the same amount of power. There's nothing to suggest anyone got anything special beyond element control that doesn't require aura to use, and the Maidens can use all elements.

If the Spring Maiden were to heal Qrow, it woulnd't be because she's the Spring Maiden. It'd be something unique to her, not something gained from the Wizards power.
