Bookkeeping for Childcare Centres

Young Guns Bookkeeping provides practical bookkeeping services for childcare centres and early learning businesses across Melbourne. We help keep your financial records organised and up to date, so you can spend less time dealing with the numbers and more time focusing on your centre.

Bookkeeping for Busy Childcare Centres

Childcare businesses have their own financial challenges. You may be managing parent fees, government-related payments, staff wages, superannuation, rent, food, supplies, cleaning, utilities and a range of other operating costs.

With so many transactions happening every month, keeping your books accurate can be a lot to stay on top of.

We can help with the everyday bookkeeping that keeps your centre's finances organised, including:

• Bank reconciliations

• Accounts payable

• Accounts receivable

• Parent fee invoicing

• Supplier bills and payments

• Expense tracking

• Payroll bookkeeping

• GST and BAS support

• Xero bookkeeping

• Cash flow tracking

• Monthly bookkeeping

• Financial reporting

• General bookkeeping support

Keep Your Centre's Finances Organised

When you're focused on running a childcare centre, it's easy for bookkeeping to fall behind.

But when your accounts aren't current, it becomes harder to understand how much you're spending, what's coming in and how the business is performing.

We help keep your bookkeeping up to date so you have clearer financial information when you need it.

Keep Track of Fees and Payments

Regular fee income is an important part of running a childcare centre.

Keeping track of invoices, payments and outstanding amounts can become time-consuming, particularly as the number of families at your centre grows.

We can help keep your accounts receivable organised and make it easier to monitor payments and outstanding invoices.

Manage Staff Costs

For childcare centres, wages and employment costs can represent a significant part of the monthly budget.

With educators, administration staff and other employees to manage, keeping payroll-related bookkeeping accurate is important.

We can help maintain your payroll bookkeeping and keep your wage expenses properly reflected in your accounts.

Stay on Top of Centre Expenses

Childcare centres have plenty of ongoing expenses. From food and educational resources to cleaning, rent, utilities, insurance, maintenance and office supplies, the costs can quickly add up.

We help keep these transactions organised so you have a clearer view of where your money is being spent.

Xero Bookkeeping for Childcare Centres

If your childcare business uses Xero, we can work with your existing accounting system.

We can help manage bank reconciliations, bills, invoices, expenses, GST and general bookkeeping, keeping your Xero file current and organised.

Instead of spending your evenings catching up on transactions, you can leave the bookkeeping to us.

Bookkeeping for Early Learning Businesses

We provide bookkeeping support for a range of childcare and early learning businesses, including:

• Childcare centres

• Early learning centres

• Long day care centres

• Preschool businesses

• Family day care businesses

• Before and after school care businesses

• Independent childcare operators

• Multi-centre childcare businesses

Understand the Numbers Behind Your Centre

Keeping an eye on revenue is important, but understanding your costs is just as important.

Staffing, rent, food, resources, utilities, maintenance and other operating expenses all affect the profitability of your centre.

Accurate and up-to-date bookkeeping can give you a clearer picture of your financial position and help you make better-informed business decisions.

Whether you're considering expanding, employing more staff or simply want to understand how your centre is performing, having current financial records gives you a much better starting point.

Bookkeeping That Works Around You

Every childcare business operates differently. You may run a small independent centre or manage multiple locations with a larger team. Whatever the size of your business, we can provide bookkeeping support based on your needs.

At Young Guns Bookkeeping, we keep things practical and straightforward. We'll take the time to understand your business and help keep your bookkeeping under control.
