The Local Authority Designated Officer (LADO) dealing with the family's complaint confirmed ‘appropriate action’ had been taken.
A devastated mum claims a social worker assigned to her family by Sefton Council, started a relationship with the abusive father of her children and had a baby with him. Hayley, which is not her real name, claims the social worker wrote favourable reports about the father of her children, who will be referred to as Mr Y, which helped him maintain visiting rights to their children. Furthermore, Hayley said the social worker, who will be referred to as Ms X, also became pregnant with Mr Y.
Ms X was the agency social worker and she was tasked with supervising Mr Y's visits with the children in the foster home. Ms X was also responsible for writing reports to the family court about the father's behaviour, his interactions with the children and his suitability for continued access. And it was soon after this Ms X, who had knowledge of Mr Y’s history of violence and abusive behaviour, allegedly began a relationship with him and became pregnant.
