You trust babysitters enough to bring them into your home -- watching your most precious family members and the stuff in your home.

But one New Milford babysitter apparently broke a family’s trust.

Karin Doyle, 18, is accused of stealing video equipment and games from a home where she was sitting last December.

The News Times says the arrest stems from an accusation by the family a year ago.

Doyle was picked up on a warrant this week. She’s charged with fourth-degree larceny and second-degree making a false statement to police.

She's due in court on November 23.

Karin Doyle, 18.

(The money was in the house because it was to be given to my husbands employees that night as their holiday bonuses). The police had to let her go because we couldn't prove anything. The second babysitter went into my bathroom over the course of about 9 months and went through my personal belongings, helping herself to my make-up amounting to several hundred dollars. When confronted she confessed, we did not press charges but of course never used her again . She had been babysitting for us even longer than the first one, both came with good references from people we knew.
