Hi, welcome to Spider ID. 🙂 This is a Woodlouse Hunter (Dysdera crocata). Like most spiders they have venom but are not considered to be of medical significance and are unlikely to bite except in self defense.

This spider was found in my bathroom on the floor doing his thing! It was not aggressive by any means. I have a two year old and am worried it might be poisonous.
