I think, as a first step - attempt mediation. This must be attempted before being allowed to submit a court application anyway.
Some people do manage to get things sorted at mediation, some don't. I doubt children's services would want to get involved and would tell you to seek legal advice.
In the scenario you are describing - if you get to court, the judge would order Cafcass (court appointed social workers) to investigate matters anyway.
Best of luck.
