What was a medieval maid's job in the castle?

Answer 1

Some of these women became servants. Some servants helped with crafts in homes and/or nursed the children of their master. Their main jobs were to clean, cook, and do all of the other domestic work

Answer 2

There were no maids. The queen had young noble women who took care of her needs and wardrobe. The young women wanted to be there because it was a chance to be at court, to be seen, to bring power to the family and to find a good husband. These were the Ladies in Waiting.

There were servants. Who do you think did the cleaning and cooking. NO noble woman would be cleaning out the chamber pots or turning the spits in the kitchen. Ladies in Waiting had very specific duties, and it certainly did not include cleaning or cooking.

There was a position of chamber maid: "Once the lord and his lady had arisen, chambermaids ventured into their apartments, swept and emptied chamber pots and wash basins, and the laundress also began the day's wash. For their part, the lord and lady of the castle made sure they were tidy before they greeted their household or any guests, washing off with water from their basins while partially clothed to keep warm."

Answer 3

A "lady" didn't have a job she was the mistress of the castle.
