WE’LL KEEP YOUR BOOKS, YOU KEEP YOUR COOL.
Welcome to BBK—keeping you compliant and stress-free is what we do, and we love doing it. Let us handle the numbers, so you can focus on what matters—and maybe we’ll even have a little fun along the way.
Balancing books for better business.
Welcome to BBK — yes, we’re bookkeepers and BAS agents, and yes, we handle all that compliance stuff - and we’re so much more than that. We’re passionate about helping Australian businesses, in Canberra and beyond, stay organised and stress-free. Whatever business you're running, bookkeeping doesn’t have to be a headache — it can actually be enjoyable, or dare we say fun (!) when you've got the right team by your side.
Our Services
-
Account Reconciliation Made Simple. We know how crucial it is for your financial documentation to be transparent—not just for your organisation, but also for finance teams, board members, and auditors, especially if you require annual audits.
At BBK, we’ll chase down any missing invoices or documents to save you time in the long run. We make sure everything is properly stored in Xero, giving you clear visibility over every transaction. Whether it’s for your internal team or external auditors, we ensure your accounts are accurate, organised, and audit-ready.

At BBK, we’re a small but passionate team dedicated to providing the very best service to our clients. Whether you’re running a GST-registered business or simply need help with compliance, we tailor our bookkeeping services to fit your specific needs.
How often do you need us? That’s entirely up to you. We can work on your accounts daily, weekly, fortnightly, monthly, quarterly, or on an ad-hoc basis—whatever works best for your business.
As a registered BAS agent, we can lodge all your compliance information directly with the ATO, including Instalment Activity Statements (IAS), Business Activity Statements (BAS), and Tax Payments Annual Reporting (TPAR). Even better, when we lodge your BAS, you get an extra four weeks to pay and submit to the ATO—giving you some breathing room.
But don’t worry—we’re not leaving things to the last minute. Keeping you updated and organised is our top priority, and we ensure everything is lodged on time so your business stays compliant and stress-free.
-
Got employees? No worries at all! At BBK, we take the hassle out of managing payroll for your business. All we need from you is the award information for your employees—after that, we’ll handle everything.
From setting up a payroll system, managing timesheets and approvals, to processing and even paying wages directly from your bank account—we’ve got it covered. We’ll also take care of sending payslips, lodging Single Touch Payroll (STP), and preparing and processing superannuation payments.
We’re here to make payroll stress-free, so you can focus on what you do best—running your business.
-
We've Got You Covered. Is reporting driving you crazy? We get it—it can be a headache. That’s why BBK offers customised reporting based on your business or organisation’s unique needs. We know how crucial accurate, timely reporting is, so we take the lead to ensure everything’s in place to give you the insights you need, when you need them.
Struggling to set up a budget and stay accountable? We’re here for that too. We work with clients who are accountable to boards, where budgeting is key. We’ll help you track budget vs actuals, provide commentary on any variances, and highlight important factors to consider when reviewing your accounts.
Our goal? To make it all easy to understand. We don’t just throw numbers at you—we translate them into insights that help you make informed decisions for your business or organisation.

Supporting Your Business, Every Step of the Way
Being a general manager, CEO, or founder can be overwhelming, and we get it. That’s why at BBK, we’re not just about crunching numbers—we’re here to offer ongoing support and accountability when it comes to your finances. Whether it’s helping you stick to your budget, or working through financial challenges, we’re by your side.
Take one of our clients, for example. We chat monthly to discuss how her business is going, what she’s been juggling, and what areas of her finances need attention. It's a chance for her to get clarity, tackle challenges, and plan for the month ahead.
At BBK, our goal is to make your life easier by managing your finances in a way that ensures you're always compliant, on track, and stress-free. We’re here to help you focus on what matters—running your business efficiently and confidently.
-
Drowning in bills and paperwork? We’re here to help. At BBK, we offer a service where we’ll come to your workplace (if you’re in Canberra or the surrounding area), scan all those receipts, invoices, and documents, and store them electronically in your Xero file and on our secure servers.
We can even take it a step further—by being added as an authorised person on your bank account, we can handle uploading and paying your bills directly from your account. No more paperwork stress—just streamlined, efficient bill management, all taken care of for you.
“Amanda and the team are great. They don’t miss a thing, and make sure you don’t as well. It is not often that you can say you have never had a single problem with a service or organisation – but this is the case for Balancing Bookkeeper.
Chris Jackson - Acuitas.
“Amanda has saved my life. Her help with our bookkeeping and financial management has given me so much time back, that I am now able to get on with the strategic matters that were being neglected. Amanda is timely and reliable in handling everything I throw at her.”
Vicki Bennett - Mountain Trails Adventure School
“Amanda and the team at Balancing Bookkeeper are absolutely amazing! I always turn up feeling ashamed of my terrible account keeping skills and then I see Amanda and she makes me feel like I have just given her a really awesome Christmas present. They go above and beyond, and always explain things to me in a way I can understand. They are really good at what they do and they are so passionate about it so you just know they will really look after you.”
