Who We Serve

Always working for you!

Nanaimo Bookkeeping Services was established on Vancouver Island to support bookkeeping and accounting needs for small and medium-sized businesses across Western Canada. Our core values are centered around integrity, honesty and kindness.


Why hire a bookkeeper?

As a business owner, you’re likely concentrating on day-to-day activities including seeing clients throughout the day, sending out proposals, managing staff and ensuring things run smoothly. Like most businesses, keeping track of every single transaction, payment or expense receipt is time-consuming and doesn’t lend well to a return on time investment. Not to mention if you have ever missed a deadline which resulted in CRA penalties.

As your bookkeeping firm, we organize, collate and record financial data on a regular basis and store this information in a standard way so you can manage your cash flow, expenses and payables on time and on budget with regular financial reporting.

  • What People Say About Us

    We have been using Nanaimo Bookkeeping since 2019. Kim has been instrumental in keeping our business current with all our filings, preparing our year-ends, and organizing our payroll. Our business work-flow is chaotic, but Kim has been able to stay on top of everything which has taken a huge load off of my shoulders, and allowed me to sleep at night. She is very professional and knowledgeable.

  • What People Say About Us

    Kim went above and beyond my expectations. They completely cleaned up a mess that was created by another bookkeeper and then set up payroll for my employees. It is such a nice feeling knowing that it is all taken care of and correctly. I couldn't have asked for a better company to do this for me. I am very grateful for them.
