Remember that Dumbledore thought that Sirius was the secret 
keeper, and only the secret keeper could have betrayed the 
Potter's location.  He didn't know about the 'bluff' by using 
Pettigrew instead.  So, based on Dumbledore's knowledge, he 
would have assumed Sirius was in league with Voldemort.  Not 
the type of guy you'd want to leave the kid with :)
