According to an arrest report, Karolyi told the girl she could stay at a Hialeah motel she was living in with her boyfriend and baby, but told the teen that she had to "earn her keep."
Police said Karolyi threw out the teen's school uniform, bought her two outfits and posted several photos of the girl on "The Backpage."
Police said she also collected $600 from the teen to help pay the motel bill.
Karolyi and her boyfriend were arrested after a 16-year-old witness came forward to authorities.
The baby is now in the custody of the Florida Department of Children and Families.
