"I bought my reptile-obsessed 7 year old son a private animal handling experience with Lindsay’s Animal School as his main Christmas 2021 present. 


We have just spent a fascinating few hours with Lindsay and her remarkable array of wonderful beasts. 


My son was in heaven; having a passionate and experienced animal expert like Lindsay all to ourselves was a real treat. She is a very natural teacher with a deep knowledge and passion for her animals. My son handled several snakes, lizards, frogs, various mammals, a parrot and yes, a ferret. 


There was plenty of time with each animal, that experience is long enough that it never feels rushed.


Great fun for us both. Highly recommend Lindsay and this fantastic experience."

"We love having Lindsay's Animal School with us. She regually has workshops with Mabel's Emporium Ltd and it's wonderful to see the excitement of the children both before and after the session." Review of The Monthly Animal Club. 30th May 2019.

"Lindsay came to us today for my sons 3rd birthday! All the kids and adults enjoyed holding and learning about the animals. Lindsay is lovely and was really great with the little kids whose attention spans are rather short! She bought guinea pigs, rabbits, snakes, mice, a bearded dragon, gecko, ferret (which my son walked round the garden 😍). I Highly recommend Lindsay and I thought very good value too.  Review of a party.  Lisa Meek. May 26th 2019


"Hi Lindsay, Just wanted to say a huge thank you so for the party at the weekend. Herbie and indeed all of his friends thoroughly enjoyed it.....some of them certainly held animals that they were a little dubious about but felt happy and confident to handle, stroke and discover all sorts of info about them. The perfect blend of fun, laughter and learning. The animals were all delightful, calm and obviously very well looked after and happy.
I've passed your details on to a number of friends."

"It's a great way to get up close and actually touch some animals that you would not normally do - Like snakes! Also, it's just nice to be able to hold the animals. Lindsey is very knowledgable about them and she is very good with them and the children together. She is very good about answering questions and showing you how to hold the animals. My kids love going!

Thankyou so much for a amazing party today. My snake mad daughter and all her friends had such fun but also learnt lots of facts too. Lindsey is so nice and you can tell she loves what she does. Her animals are all super friendly and we loved meeting them all. Couldn’t recommend enough the best party we have ever had.

Lindsay was great and kept 26 4-5 year olds happy and entertained. Everyone loved the animals it was a great variety. Lindsay’s knowledge was great and she was brilliant with all the children. We would all love to see her again. All the parents commented how great her show was. Thankyou so much.

Lindsay came to our 6 year olds party and kept ten 6 year olds enthralled the whole time! A really lovely party with facts, creatures and fun. They all loved it and so did the grown ups. I even held my first snake. Thanks so much for the best party!! Review of a Party. Verity Prime. July 20th 2018
Lindsay and her animals are amazing. She has taught my daughter so much on how to care for the animals. Which I think is such an important lesson in life. We are so lucky to have Lindsay and her animal School in our village. Thank you. Review of the Pet Club. Kelly Foley May 21st 2018
Lindsay's Animal School is brilliant! We have all learnt so much from her sessions over the years. Lindsay's enthusiasm for her work enables children to absorb so many facts about the animals whilst gaining experience of handling all of kinds of creatures. I am very grateful to Lindsay for my daughter's confidence when meeting and handling new animals. Thank you Lindsay!
Review of the Pet Club and Parties. Lucy Anne. May 14th 2018
My son regularly attends Lindsay’s Animal School, along with his grandmother, and they both love it. It has given them both the opportunity to get up close with, handle, and learn about, animals that they probably wouldn’t otherwise come into contact with. Lindsay loves her animals and is passionate about teaching others about them too. Her enthusiasm has rubbed off on my son who now has an ever-growing collection of pets and it has provided him with many opportunities that he wouldn’t have dreamt of. We’re extremely lucky to have Lindsay’s Animal School most Fridays, as well as her “roadshows” at various other events. We highly recommend Lindsay and her wonderful menagerie!
Review of Pet Clubs and The Animal School. Sarah Beauchamp. May 14th 2018

This is an amazing experience! My daughters have been to several of Lindsay’s animal school sessions. They have always had a wonderful time, and got to hold a variety of animals for as long as they liked. Lindsay’s knowledge and patience seem infinite. Her skill at managing the animals, and children alike is quite remarkable! 
Review of the Pet Club. Sarah Shephard. May 14, 2018 · 
Lindsay and her animals are literally AMAZING! We booked Lindsay for our daughter's 10th birthday party which involved 16 of her friends/family ranging from 4 to 13years. Lindsay is full of wonderful knowledge and kept all the kids happy and entertained with her animals and her interesting facts and managed the slightly nervous handler to the slightly over confident handler with absolute ease. Her animals were superstars and all the kids fell in love with each and every animal- including the Giant African Snail, King Snake and cute bunny rabbits! Definitely the best party my daughter has ever had and I would not hesitate to book again in the future! Suitable for all ages and an absolute professional! Thank you again.

Both my kids have had animal parties with Lindsay. They were done with such care and passion. All the kids loved handling the animals and learned a lot about where they come from and how to look after them. Loads of fun- thank you! Review of a Party. Joanna Welfare. November 27, 2016 · 
Lindsay is excellent with the animals and the children. Brilliant 'hands on' event.
