Section 8 too many visitors

So I picked up my first property, its a 4plex in rougher neighborhood and used property management to find and screen tenants. I rented a 3 bd room apartment to a 2 bd room voucher holder at $900. My reasoning was 2 bd room voucher in section 8 would mean 4 people max on the lease and less wear and tear on the property as well as less noise in the 4 plex. The problem I've encountered is that my very first tenant has decided to take care of her 5 grand children Monday thru Friday from 5 am to whatever time the mother can pick them up. Along with the 5 children and the 4 lease holders we have other visitors throughout the day and even though it's been a week since everyone moved in, I've had 10-13 people in the apartment everyday. They assure me that no one is staying the night. Is there anything I can do to limit the visitors. Also I've considered telling the grandmother that she cannot use my property as a daycare. But would it qualify as a daycare if she's not receiving compensation?
