Running a small business is stressful enough. I take bookkeeping completely off your plate so you can focus on what you actually love doing.
30 minutes · No pressure · No obligation
Most small business owners didn't start their business to spend evenings on spreadsheets. That's where I come in.
I started Hirabooks because I kept seeing the same thing: small business owners drowning in paperwork, missing deadlines, and spending their evenings on spreadsheets instead of with their families.
Bookkeeping shouldn't feel like a punishment. When your books are clean and organized, you make better decisions, stress less at tax time, and actually understand where your money is going.
That's what I do for my clients. I take the chaos out of your finances and replace it with clarity, so you can run your business with confidence.
I'm a QuickBooks Online Advanced Certified ProAdvisor with 8+ years of bookkeeping and accounting experience, mostly in engineering and professional services firms. I've also served as treasurer of a non-profit daycare for nine years. I'm also currently working toward my CPA designation.
Based in Toronto, I'm remote by default, so I work with small business owners across Canada, and I'm happy to meet in person around the Toronto area when it helps. No complicated onboarding, no jargon, no surprises on your invoice.
Every number matters. I treat your books with the same care I'd want for my own.
No confusing accounting jargon. I explain things in a way that actually makes sense.
Confidentiality is non-negotiable. Your financial information stays private, always.
Deadlines met, reports on time, questions answered within 24 hours.
I focus on industries where I have real hands-on experience, so I already know how your books work and what your CRA and payroll obligations look like.
Monthly bookkeeping from the first transaction of the month to the final report, plus the setup and cleanup work that gets messy books back on track.
Day-to-day transaction coding every month, plus QuickBooks Online setup and support so your books start on solid ground.
Every account reconciled every month, including multi-entity and multi-currency cleanup. I catch errors before they become problems.
Vendor and subcontractor payments, customer invoicing, and AR tracking, so cash flow stays healthy and predictable.
Job cost tracking, project billing, and purchase order setup for project-based businesses, including experience with Unanet and BillQuick.
Transactions coded correctly all year and returns prepared on time. Once you authorize me, I can also deal with the CRA on your behalf.
Payroll setup and processing through your provider: onboarding new hires, remittances, ROEs, payroll reconciliations and journal entries, and year-end tax form preparation. Union remittances, WSIB/WCB, and EHT reporting too.
Behind or messy books? I clean up the historical data, get you current, and keep you there.
Clear monthly reports and year-end preparation, so your accountant gets books they can work with and tax season isn't something you dread.
Software I work with: QuickBooks Online (Advanced Certified), Sage, Unanet, BillQuick, and payroll systems including ADP, Dayforce Powerpay, and Wagepoint.
You don't need to have everything figured out before reaching out. That's what the first call is for.
Tell me about your business. No pressure, no sales pitch. Just an honest conversation.
I recommend the right services and send a clear proposal with flat monthly pricing.
Once onboarded, I take it from here. Clean reports delivered every month.
Always know where your money is going. I'm just a message away anytime.
No hidden fees, no surprise invoices. Clear flat monthly rates based on what your business actually needs. Your exact rate is a fixed monthly fee, confirmed after a free consultation.
Some services depend on the size of the job, so I quote them separately after we talk.
Setup, new hire onboarding, payroll runs, remittances, ROEs, and year-end tax forms through your payroll provider. Priced by the number of employees and how often you run payroll.
Behind on your books, or taking over a mess? I bring everything current and clean up the historical data. A one-time project, priced by how many months need work, your transaction volume, and the condition of the books.
Final pricing depends on your transaction volume and specific needs. Book a free consultation and I'll recommend the best fit and give you an exact quote.
I'll take care of your books from your first transaction to year-end, following Canadian rules. Transactions are captured regularly, bank accounts are reconciled on time, and every month-end and year-end is closed accurately.
Based in Toronto, serving clients across Canada. Most work happens remotely, and I'm glad to meet in person around the Toronto area when it helps.
Flat monthly pricing, always. What you see in the proposal is what you pay. No hidden fees, no hourly overruns.
When you email me, I reply. You'll always deal with me directly, and I'll know your business by name.
