Who are you and why should I let you wear my bookkeeper hat?
I’m glad you asked!
My name is Heidi Hartley. I’m the owner and primary bookkeeper at The Bookkeeper Hat.
I’ve owned service-based businesses for most of my life. I’ve kept my financial records in spiral notebooks, Excel spreadsheets, desktop accounting software, and, most recently, in cloud-based accounting software. Throughout the years, I’ve learned a lot about business and a lot about myself. Two of those things are:
1.) I like bookkeeping.
2.) I really like making my clients happy.
These two facts about me, combined with the fact that there is currently a shortage of qualified bookkeepers, inspired me to establish The Bookkeeper Hat. My goal is to provide accurate and timely cloud-based bookkeeping services that allow entrepreneurs to uncover their potential and grow their businesses.
Now it’s your turn. I’d love to find out more about you and your business.
If you have a minute and would like to continue our conversation, please fill out our contact form. Once I receive your information, I’ll be back in touch within a week.

Maureen: Admin Assistant
I’m Maureen and I work for Heidi at The Bookkeeper Hat.
I have enjoyed doing bookkeeping and payroll for many years – mainly because I have had the privilege of working for very pleasant people and Heidi is one of the best! It is very satisfying to help someone be organized and keep their finances in order.
Ronica: Admin Assistant
I’m Ronica and I’ve been working part-time for Heidi since 2020. I started off working for her ASL interpreting company, Words for the Eyes, and then, as her bookkeeping business grew, started to work for her at The Bookkeeper Hat, too.
I help keep Heidi organized. I manage her files and assist with data entry. I also handle some of the bookkeeping for her businesses.
Shella: Bookkeeper
I’m Shella and I’m a part-time bookkeeper at The Bookkeeper Hat.
I fell in love with bookkeeping when I was a first year college student. I graduated and passed the CPA Board Exam in May 2013 and then looked for a job that had something to do with bookkeeping. I spent the first 8 years of my career with a small bookkeeping firm and then began my freelancing journey.
My goal is to maintain a healthy work life balance and to help clients to understand the numbers behind their financial statements.
