Your second definition is doubtful. A lady in waiting was never a servant and certainly not the equivalent to a valet. A valet's equivalent is a lady's maid. 121.73.7.84 09:28, 11 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

I haven't come across any quotations for sense 2: "A woman who is a maid or servant to a lady, similar to a valet for a gentleman." — SGconlaw (talk) 22:29, 25 October 2019 (UTC)Reply
