nurserymaid

Then I remembered that the dead nurserymaid was French.

“She was the nurserymaid, was she not?”

Comical adventures are recorded in the "Valley," such as when the whole train of little damsels, walking out under the convoy of Julia and a young nurserymaid, encountered a bull, which had lifted a gate on its horns.

One summer night, after she had been put to bed, her nurse and the nurserymaid were sitting by the nursery window darning some stockings.

"They'll be looking for a bridegroom for her soon," said the nurserymaid.
