Maids were used for dirty tasks such as cleaning chamber pots, doing laundry, kitchen work, and cleaning.

The crown used lesser nobility and their children to take care of them and this was considered an honor. The queen had ladies in waiting that were the daughters of nobility. They took care of the wardrobe, dressing the queen, seeing to her toilet, and all of her needs. The king had similar helpers with male nobility. One reason the noblity found this to be an honor because it put them into the court and allowed them to find a husband or wife, to make political connections, and to be at the heart of the power. Many would go back and forth between courts of different kings/queens.
