Here’s What Make

Childcare Accounting and Business Academy

The Only Business Program of Its Kind:

No B.S., only must-have skills, shortcuts, and ‘tools of the trade’ that every smart childcare owner must know to make their business ‘virus-proof’.
The quick-and-dirty ‘MBA’ ninja skills, even if you think you are bad with numbers and haven’t taken a single accounting or business management class ever.
Access to the best practices of running, growing, and scaling a childcare business…
…while avoiding the most common mistakes…
…and being able to ask what you don’t know and get answers that fit your exact situation.

Okay, I want these results...

Check out what these

Childcare Owners are saying:

FROM THE DESK OF SHANITA JONES, CPA, MBA:

Dear Childcare Owner,

Business owners often come to me asking for help in understanding what’s going on with their business.

They’ve been running their childcare the best they could.

And did what they thought they were ‘supposed’ to do.

Yet somehow, they can’t seem to break through that ‘glass ceiling’.

Sometimes the ceiling is there because the cash flow just doesn’t work out….

…and there’s more month at the end of the money.

Or they have the bandwidth to add another location…

…but the bank wouldn’t give them the loan because their financials are just not ‘good’ enough to qualify.

Others feel even more frustrated because they haven’t been in the business that long and could use government grants…

But choose not to apply, worried that it might unleash a living hell of an audit…

…putting them under the magnifying glass of the IRS with all their penalties for not doing the reporting ‘right’.

And I get it -

Numbers can be intimidating.

And most people weren’t born to be accountants.

But...

NOT taking control of the finances is like running with a leaky bucket.

I WANT TO CONTROL MY FINANCES

You can keep pouring time, sweat, and money into it…

…hoping that somehow it would all work out in the end…

But that bucket could never be full.

And it could never be that dream business that not only puts food on the table…

or helps attract and retain the most talented employees…

…but it also makes a real difference. For the kids, for their families, for the community.

That’s why I’m here to tell you this:

You don’t need to be a ‘natural’ at numbers to understand your finances…

I will teach you.

TELL ME MORE!

Just like I’ve taught hundreds of childcare owners,

just like you.

And you’ve done the hardest part already.

Getting your business off the ground, earning a reputation in your community, being trusted by parents - that takes years.

Accounting?

I can guarantee you’ll be looking at your books in a few months thinking…

“Why hadn’t I figured it out sooner?”

You see…

Financial statements aren’t ‘just numbers’.

They tell a story.

And once you know what that story is…

You'll be able to:

Fix all those holes in that leaky bucket…
Stop worrying about your taxes, half-expecting to get a nasty surprise from your tax preparer.
Understand when it’s time to expand and when it’s better to wait till you are ready.
Even apply for that new location loan whenever you choose to.

Because what the bank wants to see is this:

Do you know how to run your business?

And the only way the bank can see that…

Is by looking at properly done, reliable, and accurate financial statements.

YES! I WANT THESE RESULTS TOO

HOW DOES ONE BECOME A CHILDCARE CPA?

In case we haven’t met yet, and you haven’t heard my story…

My name is Shanita Jones

And over the last two decades, I’ve helped hundreds of small business owners get past that confused and overwhelmed state…

…and find their stride.

But when I first opened my accounting firm, I was in that overwhelmed state myself.

Doing everything for everyone.

Accounting, bookkeeping, taxes…

I mean, everything.

I was pushing myself so hard…

…that the work I loved became the source of stress and frustration.

I wanted to help people.

Yet there I was, pouring over the Federal and State rules and regulations…

…making sure I didn’t miss any new IRS publications for any of my client’s businesses.

Then one day, I asked myself,

“What am I doing all this for?”

You see…

I became an accountant because of my auntie Karen.

She was my favorite person, and I would come to her daycare and watch her work.

Of course, some days, I had to pick up a few toys and take out the trash…

But I loved doing it because it made her smile.

I also saw how much my aunt struggled.

She was born to take care of the kids - so kind and so patient…

Yet she would be wringing her hands, going through the receipts, and trying to figure out if there was enough money to pay the staff.

So I remember thinking… “When I grow up, I’m going to help her!”

And I did.

But then I got sidetracked, helping dentists, bakers, and pretty much any business you can think of.

And that just didn’t feel right.

So by the grace of God,

I went back to where it all started - To my roots.

And became the Childcare CPA.

Then an interesting thing happened.

The more childcare owners I helped…

The better I understood why they were struggling.

It wasn’t that they weren’t smart enough.

They were just too busy putting out fires, working in the business…

Instead of working on the business.

They were too much in the thick of it…

…not seeing the bigger picture…

…not knowing what to do to make it run like a smooth, well-oiled machine.

Between the bad advice on the internet and asking their friends…

They were getting exposed to unnecessary risks…

…some even got in trouble with the IRS and the authorities…

Because whoever told them it was okay to file 1099 for their employees…

…or to deduct the full loan payment instead of just interest…

…wasn’t the right person to ask!

The virus that changed everything:

Clients have been asking me for years to

teach them how to run their business the right way.

But I didn’t think I could. Physically.

There were just so many of them…

…and only one of me.

I couldn’t see how I could give each person my undivided attention while still running my accounting firm and helping my existing clients.

Then COVID hit.

And suddenly, we were living in a world where technology made that one-on-one attention possible

Plus… Now we have ways to build virtual communities!

A childcare owner from Chicago could connect and learn from the childcare owner in Corpus Christi!

At that point, I had no excuses.

After all…

I’ve watched childcare owners turn their whole businesses around.

Get out of debt.

Open new locations.

Hire more staff.

And most importantly…

Get their life back.

All just by learning the business side of childcare!

How could I keep it all to myself?

PLUS... I knew how to teach

Financial and Business Skills

in small, digestible bites…

…making it as simple as 1-2-3.

Even had the worksheets and the ‘cheat’ sheets to make the business decisions easy!

So that even the busiest business owners could take the biggest needle moving steps...

That would make the biggest difference…

And put them to work instantly.

Most importantly…

I wanted to provide a safe space to ask questions and get answers.

So there would be no more searching online.

Or ‘hoping’ that somehow things would get better on their own.

So I talked to my staff. Shifted a few things in my schedule…

And created this business and accounting program for childcare owners.

Whether you are a brand new business owner who wants to start a childcare business the right way…

Or someone who’s been running multiple sites…

…and needs help growing and scaling…

This is how you get there.

Listen…

I know you take pride in your childcare business.

You have a dream and a vision.

A business empire that provides you the freedom to provide a creative, nurturing, and loving environment for the families you care for.

But…how can you focus on that while you’re stuck?

When you don’t understand HOW to manage your finances (and why your accountant won’t share that with you).

WHY your business is stagnant.

WHY the countless hours you are putting into managing your business don’t seem to be paying off the way you thought they would…

Maybe you even feel embarrassed and ashamed of your performance.

You might be thinking to yourself…

“This is my business, I should be able to manage it. Why can’t I seem to get anything under control?!”

Remember, we do the best we can with what we have.

Up until now, you know you have been doing EVERYTHING IN YOUR POWER to be financially literate for the health of your childcare business.

All while pushing against the tide of:

- Hiring shortages

- Government regulations

- Administrative work

- Business maintenance

And so many other roadblocks that have left you wanting to rip your hair out!

I’m here to tell you that there’s no need to be ashamed of where you are now.

The fact that you are reading this tells me you know…

It’s time to make a change.

BUT…what if nothing changes?

A year from now… 5 years from now… Even 10 years on…

Where do you see your business?

It doesn’t look very good, does it?

But, again, I know that you are here, right here, right now.

That tells me that you’ve had enough.

You’re ready to break free of this never-ending cycle of razor-thin profit margins.

You’re ready to start DEFINING your bottom line.

You’re ready to take that radical action to propel your childcare business into a prosperous, well-oiled machine.

CONTROL of your finances…

Take MASSIVE action in your business…

…and build a LONG LASTING LEGACY for yourself and your family.

We’ve come to a point where it’s time to decide.

What is it going to be for you?

The one choice would be to just leave everything the way it is right now. Just continue doing what you’ve been doing.

And if you do decide that’s the best path for you, then I’ll respect that. Maybe you are just not ready.

But I also wonder… Why did you join the webinar?

Why did you read all the way to this part?

My guess is that you know what you should be doing. But maybe you are scared. Or worried that this might not work for you.

And I get it. But what will your life look like if you don’t choose to enroll?

You see, you are the only one who can make this decision.

And once the Enrollment into the Academy closes…

There won’t be another opportunity like this for at least another year. So this whole next year you’ll be left wondering what might have been.

Beating yourself up for staying behind.

And I don’t want that for you.

See What My Clients Are Saying

"I went to this company last year and they fixed my taxes that were so messed up. Thank god for Mrs. Jones, who helped solve my issues. She was on point and on time. So this year 2019 I am back and her response was quick and well done. I really appreciate her company, they are very professional, nice and honest. Absolutely Wonderful- Thanks"

TASHA HOLMES

"My experience with Jones Taxes and Booking was exceptional. I am very pleased to say that my taxes were done in a timely fashion. The owner was very pleasant and professional. I was given some great tips on how to save money and file taxes for independent contractors. I would definitely recommend anyone to them."

KAY-KAY

"Ms. Jones is very professional and knowledgeable, clearly knows her craft well. Received some useful insight into addressing some tax issues I am experiencing and will definitely implement. Looks like I found my accountant."

ANTHONY GADDY SR.

“Before meeting you, there were several things on my taxes that were not correct because I didn’t know I was entitled to those things and the person doing my taxes didn’t ask questions so I didn’t know I was supposed to share certain things. I missed out on a lot and paid the government a lot. Not knowing what to ask, you’ll be lost, so to have a CPA is the first step.”

DAVETTE STEPHENS

“I think most people think that accountants only do the numbers, because that probably is what so many do, but you don’t. And I think that for people signing up with you it’d be super beneficial because like you said how much square footage is in the space, how can we maximize the space. Things that most accountants aren’t going to, help you think through that - help you with enrollment and giving you ideas for marketing. There is so much that comes with being a part of your team that I think is an absolute need for any center, in home or a larger facility.”

VANIA LOVE

"In all my years of filing a tax return, I have never had an experience like I encountered with Jones Taxes & Financial Services. Very communicative and professional. They took their time and went through page by page to make it easy to understand. Their videos were also very thorough and everything was a step by step easy process. I must say this is by far the best company that I have dealt with."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How long is the program?

The program lasts twelve months.

Will I be able to finish it?

Anyone can finish it. This program is well paced, to make sure you don’t overwhelm yourself, and take it one small step at a time.

I don’t have any business experience, is this really for me?

Absolutely. This program is for anyone who wants to create a strong business foundation.

Whether you are brand new to the childcare business, or have been running it for decades, this program is for you.

What if I decide halfway through that it isn’t for me?

If you decide so, that’s entirely up to you. But I do hope you’ll rethink that decision. You can’t just say “I don’t want to be a better business owner”. That wouldn’t be fair to you, or to people who depend on you. If you need help, or you’ve fallen behind, simply reach out to me, and I’ll help you get back on track.

I already have an accountant doing my books...Is this for me?

What you’ll learn in the Academy will make you a savvy business owner. Yes, you can choose to outsource your accounting to a professional. Or you can take over yourself. It’s entirely up to you. The goal here is to help you become the decision-maker. And the only way to start making smart business decisions is by knowing your numbers better than your accountant would.

Do you offer refunds?

We have a strict no-refund policy. I am here to hold you accountable to your childcare business goals; a refund is a copout - a way for you to give up on yourself. And I wouldn’t be a good business mentor, if I let you betray yourself.

How much time is this gonna take?

We ask that you commit just a few hours a week!

It costs too much...

If you charge parents $300 per week per kid, you only need one extra kid a year to pay for the cost. On the other hand, if by taking charge of your accounting and finances, you end up expanding, then the upside to this cost is as big as your vision. Also, let’s not forget that you could take over your own accounting instead of paying someone else to do your books for you.

What happens after 12-months are over?

If you do all the assignments, and actually apply what you’ve learned to your business, you’ll be ready to graduate and leave the nest. You will have 30 more days after the program is over to access the course materials. The whole idea is for you to keep working through the program together with the group. After that, you are a fully grown, independent adult, ready to fly :).
