Can anyone identify this plant for me? I need to know if it is poisonous.

Welcome toGoy Valcomeens. I think it is a Schefflera arboricola. In UK we would keep it in a shady place indoors and it can go outside in the summer.

Most of the Araliacea are mildly toxic (upset stomach if eaten).

Welcome, Valcomeens!
Both Scotsgran and Fractal have got it, and I found this:

Welcome from me too Valcomeens. Yes, I'll go with what Scotsgran, Fractal and Tugbrethil say. Lol. No, seriously, I agree with them. I do believe this is the plant nicknamed 'The Umbrella Plant' :o))
