Hi, I’m Sarah!
I figured out what financial services have been missing.
and I’m rebuilding from the ground up.
I'm a Calgary based bookkeeper and founder of The Accountant's Daughter. I do bookkeeping - but I make it not suck.
Most bookkeepers assume you're a mathlete who loves spreadsheets. I built my services around the radical idea that you're actually a human with a nervous system that sometimes gets overwhelmed.
What that looks like:
→ Camera-optional calls — because not everyone likes to be perceived
→ Video walkthroughs of your reports — so you actually know what your numbers mean
→ The Community Exchange Program — because finances shouldn’t be a gatekeeping tool
→ And when you say, “I’m too overwhelmed for numbers today,” we reschedule. No drama.
How I built this:
I'm certified in trauma-informed care through Somatic Integrationist Stacey Madden at Mindful Somatic Wellness. I've completed two of three phases focused on nervous system regulation, embodied awareness, and trauma-informed practices. (Phase three beginning in early 2026!)
I’ve also been a bookkeeper supporting Canadian therapy and wellness practices for over five years.
That combo? It lets me create systems that work with you, not just your income statement.
The results speak for themselves:
→ From "I think I'm profitable?" to "I made $23K this quarter."
→ From dreading tax season to feeling prepared months in advance.
→ From financial burnout to making confident business decisions.

You're not broken, the systems are. I built better ones. I built better ones — designed to support your nervous system, reduce barriers, and help you build a business that works for you.
Scope of Practice Disclaimer: While I bring a trauma-informed understanding to our work together, I am a bookkeeper, not a financial therapist. My role is to support your business's financial organization and understanding while maintaining appropriate professional boundaries. If you're interested in working with a financial therapist, I would be happy to refer you.
