Potential Renter wants to run a business at property

Hey Bp! Just put my first property up for rent on Craigslist in Jacksonville and within 1 hour had a call from an interested party who wants to run a daycare from the house. She has no problem paying the security deposit and passing a background check (I’ll check up on these). 

Are there any legal ramifications for running a business of that sort from a single family home? 

My only initial concern is the amount of people coming and going/upsetting neighbors potentially with babies crying.

Should I be worried about anything else? I’m brand new to being a landlord!
