Tenant has a job as a BABY SITTER in the Rental Unit

I have a WONDERFUL Tenant who has been with me for years in a Duplex in Los Angeles County. Rent is always on time and I have zero problems with her. I hope she stays for as long as I have the rental unit.

Recently, I have discovered that she earns extra money by "Baby Sitting" 2-3 kids, ages 2-5 years old. There has never been a problem and she is not advertising herself as a business or center for children. The kids are from families that she has a previous relationship with.

Questions:
1. Should I take any precaution steps in the Lease to address this "extra job"?

2. Do I need to increase any insurance in case a child gets hurt when in my property?
3. Am I liable if a child is hurt during Baby Sitting?

Any advice or guidelines would help. Thanks a bunch!
