I'm not sure if I'm overreacting, but I've just picked up my 8 month old son from nursery (he does four mornings a week) with an allergic reaction on both of his hands. DH is just phoning the doctor now to find out what we should do. It turns out that Zoolab were visiting so he touched a snake, a millipede, etc and therefore it looks like this is what might have caused it. The nursery did mention the Zoolab visit in their calendar and said we could request that our child does not touch the animals, but the date of the visit changed and so I didn't realise it was today and did not request this. I did however assume it must be pretty safe and a good learning opportunity, however, I've just seen the CDC website (centre for disease control) and they say snakes should not be allowed in daycare settings where there are under fives. Has anybody else had any experience of Zoolab in a nursery setting? I really like our nursery but feel that maybe I ought to say something... Any thoughts most appreciated.
