The caretaker was wrong when he thought it was Denise who broke the vase. The reason why the caretaker came to the conclusion that Denise stole the vase was because, Nathan said it was Denise; and when he asked Denise she tried to blame it on Joshua, who did it.

When he asked Joshua, he blamed it on Michelle. When the caretaker asked Michelle, she didn't blame anyone. Michelle just denied breaking the vase.
