Is it legal to video my cleaner?

We were suspicious our cleaner might be stealing from our home.So one week I left my iPad recording with a view of my wallet while I was downstairs in my office.It has caught footage of the cleaner opening and going through my wallet.
There was no cash to take so I don't think I could strictly accuse her of anything legally, but it's pretty clear I won't be keeping her! But before I confront her, have _I_ done anything illegal by recording video inside my own house without informing her? I'm in the UK…
