Daycare QuickBooks Bookkeeping Cleanup
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I manage a daycare school and my QuickBooks file has fallen behind. I need the past four to six months cleaned up so I can rely on current financials before our next licensing review.
The priorities are clear:
• Reconcile every bank (and linked credit-card) statement for the last 4–6 months until QuickBooks shows a zero unreconciled difference.
• Review and correctly categorize all expenses for the same period—supplies, payroll-related costs, food, tuition refunds, and any other daycare-specific outlays must sit in the proper accounts.
• Flag unusual or duplicate transactions and let me know if anything looks off so I can address it right away.
Deliverables I expect:
1. An updated QuickBooks file with all statements fully reconciled.
2. Accurate P&L and balance sheet reports for the cleaned-up period.
3. A short summary of corrections made and any open items that still need attention.
Acceptance criteria:
• Ending balances in QuickBooks match the bank and credit-card statements to the cent.
• No uncategorized or ask-my-accountant transactions remain for the covered months.
• Financial reports pull without errors.
I can provide bank statements, prior accountant notes, and view-only account access as soon as we start. If you have recent experience fixing messy QuickBooks files for small schools or similar nonprofits, that’s a plus. Let me know your estimated turnaround time and any questions you may have.
