Define the period and entities
We identify which months, schools, bank accounts, cards, payroll reports, and child care systems belong in the cleanup.
Review the source records
We compare the ledger with bank and card statements, tuition activity, payroll reports, vendor records, and prior close work.
Separate urgent work from historical work
Current billing, payments, payroll reconciliation, and deadlines may need coverage while the older records are repaired.
Bank and card reconciliation
We work through unreconciled periods, duplicate activity, uncategorized transactions, and balances that do not tie out.
Tuition and family balances
We compare invoices, payments, deposits, credits, withdrawals, and attendance so the child care platform and books agree.
Payroll, bills, and the monthly close
We reconcile payroll reports, review approved vendor activity, post supported adjustments, and prepare the records for reporting.
CPA coordination
We organize the books and answer record questions. Your CPA keeps responsibility for income-tax filings and specialized accounting judgments.
Weekly operating work
Transactions are categorized, bills are prepared for approval, and billing exceptions are handled while they are still current.
Monthly reconciliation and close
Bank, card, tuition-platform, and payroll activity is reconciled on a written close schedule with controller review.
Reporting by school
Owners receive a recurring reporting package and an explanation of material changes, with each location kept visible.
