If the visitation order does not prohibit overnight guests of the opposite sex, there shouldn't be a problem for now. The problem is the mother may file a petition to modify the order to prohibit overnight guests of the opposite sex when your daughter visits. Of course, she might not want this prohibition if she has a boyfriend who stays over her residence from time to time.
Depending on your relationship with the mother, you might want to speak with her about the subject to get a feeling on her position on the issue.
