Vanessa George, 49, sexually assaulted up to 64 children in her care at Little Ted’s nursery in Plymouth
Britain’s worst female paedophile has been given a new taxpayer-funded flat after serving ten years in prison.
Vanessa George, who abused dozens of babies and toddlers while working at Little Ted’s nursery in Plymouth, had been staying in a bail hostel in Birmingham since October.
The 49-year-old, who is forbidden from returning to Devon or Cornwall, is believed to be still living somewhere in the Midlands, according to the Daily Record.
George was jailed for a minimum of seven years in 2009 after she sexually assaulted up to 64 children as young as two before filming the abuse and sending it to other paedophiles.
In July, despite outrage from her victims’ parents and MPs, the Parole Board ordered her release after she’d served 10 years behind bars.
George, who lost three of her 19 stone in prison, convinced the board to release her after having treatment to boost her ‘self-esteem’.

She was put in a £50,000-per-year probation hostel which was just 547 yards from a nursery and less than half a mile from a children’s club, The Sunday People reported.
Following her release, a father who had a child at the nursery, told the BBC’s Victoria Derbyshire programme that he was ‘disgusted’.
‘I knew this was coming, but to find out on the day it’s already happened has made it worse,’ he said. ‘Again, no consideration for the victims.

He previously told the programme: ‘Our sentence is still carrying on. The only time she’s feigned remorse is in her first interview.
‘I believe that woman is still a danger to children. She’s had those urges before. I don’t think they will ever go away. I think there’s a very, very strong possibility she could do it again.’
A father of another potential victim claimed he would kill her if he ever saw her out on the street.
In 2009, George admitted 13 sexual assault charges, but maintained a silence over the names of children she assaulted.
Child protection officers have visited 180 children thought to have had contact with George, and 21 families have taken up an offer of support.
George’s co defendant Angela Allen, who raped a girl of three, has already served the five-year minimum of her sentence imposed at the same time.
The ringleader of the paedophile gang, Colin Blanchard, will be eligible for parole next year after being jailed in 2011 for a minimum of nine years.
