Tenant wants to babysit
Hello
I have a SFR that is currently marketed for rent. A good, qualified tenant (family) has turned in an application to move in February, of all months. Previous landlords have provided good references as well.
The wife / mother has babysitted in the past for friends and family members. She has stated that she intends to continue babysitting. This will not be a licensed daycare, that's for sure, but I'm concerned about the liability.
Seems like a good tenant, but is there a way I can protect myself if she keeps babysitting while renting from me?
The property is a 2 story, newer model (2006) home with no playground equipment, lead based paint, etc.
Regards,
Jerry
