The '''Social Worker''' is an [[Non-playable character|NPC]] featured in
==The Sims and The Sims Bustin' Out==
[[File:The Sims 1 - Social worker warning.png|thumb|The social worker warning from The Sims.]]
In ''[[The Sims]]'', the social worker is an NPC in the base game. The social worker is a woman named Sylvia who will come to take neglected babies from a Sim household (after a baby cries for a protracted amount of time). Unlike ''[[The Sims 2]]'' and ''[[The Sims 3]]'', social workers in ''The Sims'' only take away babies.
A glitch exists in [[The Sims Bustin' Out (console)|''The Sims Bustin' Out'' for console]] where the player will not get a notification that their baby is being neglected, resulting in the social worker confiscating the child without warning.{{confirm}}
==The Sims 2 and The Sims Stories==
In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', in addition to removing babies, toddlers, and children whose needs fall too low, the Social Worker will take any who are left home alone or are orphaned (i.e. the last adult Sim in the household dies), as well as children who are getting an F in [[School#The Sims 2|school]].
If a child dies, the [[Grim Reaper]] will instead take away the child.

Visits from the social worker are not always negative; in ''[[The Sims 2: Nightlife]]'', the [[Gypsy Matchmaker|gypsy matchmaker]] may drop her as a blind date, and she also delivers adopted kids to their new families.

In ''The Sims 3'', as in ''The Sims 2'', social workers will take away all children
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', as in ''The Sims'', children (but not babies and toddlers) can be left home alone. ''The Sims 3'' requires players to call a babysitter or stay home when a Sim is about to leave babies and toddlers home alone; if the player makes all the

==Getting rid of the social worker==
In ''The Sims'' a message will appear informing the player of the social worker's arrival. When she arrives, before she reaches the baby, pause the game, and use the "move_objects on" cheat to delete her. However, if she is deleted, resuming the game will also make the baby disappear,. The baby will reappear immediately. The parents will clap when the baby arrives, just as when it was first born. The player will have to rename the baby again, as the game thinks that it has just born, but the gender and skin color will remain the same as the first time. The three-day count to becoming a child will restart.
