You only have one server delegated, ns1.brainwavestudios.net

dig tinybaublesjewelry.com ns .GTLD-SERVERS.NET

;; ANSWER SECTION:
tinybaublesjewelry.com. 172800 IN NS ns1.brainwavestudios.net.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
ns1.brainwavestudios.net. 172800 IN A 64.34.170.94

But the zone file on that server has a different host as the name server
(all be it with the same IP address)

dig tinybaublesjewelry.com ns @ns1.brainwavestudios.net

; ANSWER SECTION:
tinybaublesjewelry.com. 86400 IN NS ns.tinybaublesjewelry.com.

;; ADDITIONAL SECTION:
ns.tinybaublesjewelry.com. 86400 IN A 64.34.170.94

This is a different host to the delegation of ns1.brainwavestudios.net.

Check for glue for this host ..

dig ns.tinybaublesjewelry.com @A.GTLD-SERVERS.NET

.... no answer. This is because the delegation is ns1.brainwavestudios.net but
your zone file says that it's ns.tinybaublesjewelry.com, which only exists
in your zone file and not as a glue record.

The name server(s) that the domain is delegated to and the NS records on
the zone file should match.

"I have tried to get the remote admin to get an A record for his NS records,
but he is claiming it is my problem... Is it?"

Yes, your zone data is wrong!
