I own a 12 unit apartment community in Oceanside, CA. I rented a unit to a single tenant in Feb 2018. I've received reports that the new tenant takes care of her grandchildren every other weekend. Four children, between the ages of 1-9, arrive with the tenant on Fridays, and leave on Sundays. I've received multiple noise complaints, reports that the children can be heard screaming as early as 6:30am,  apparently this kids are extremely rambunctious through their entire stay on weekends. The units are 1 bedroom, 1 bath 630 square feet. The tenant works as a baby sitter, but did not tell me she would operate a business out of her home.  I want to approach with caution and not say something that may appear to sound discriminatory because of her grandchildren. However, I do pay the water (including the hot water). What are my options? Can i evict this tenant? I don't know if she is licensed to babysit. Can 4 children live in such a small apartment on the weekends? I am researching occupancy limits in Oceanside rentals. The children are not on the lease, at this point I'd describe it as , they live at my rental every other weekend. What are my options?
