[quote=Anonymous]I'd ask her. "Susie, I left a ring out on my dresser the other day and can't find it. It's silver with a green stone. Have you seen it around the house?"

To answer your questions:
Not sure if it happens often with babysitters. We also don't know how you found this sitter, if you spoke to her references, etc. I've heard a story or two of babysitters stealing from families, but I also know of plenty who don't.

[i]Do you carefully hide and/or lock up all valuables at all times with trusted babysitters, nannies and housekeepers?[/i]
Yes, I lock up anything of sentimental value. Not just when someone is over -- unless I'm wearing it, I prefer to keep it locked up.

[i]Do you keep stuff and all paperwork in a locked closet door or file cabinets? I've been meaning to install a lock on my bedroom closet door.[/i]
My important papers are in a fireproof and waterproof safe.

[i]And (stupid question) How do you find someone you really TRUST to watch your kids or even come into your house while you're away? [/i]
Interview. check references. Listen to your instincts. [/quote]
