welcome to lcb…

Hi, I’m Betsy, the owner of Lake Champlain Bookkeeping!

I’m a busy mom of two, passionate about running, gardening, and making pottery in my spare time. Born and raised in Vermont, I now live in Grand Isle with my husband, Matt, our kids, and our golden retriever, Bruce.

In 2023, I launched Lake Champlain Bookkeeping to combine my love for organization with my passion for helping businesses thrive. I thrive on solving problems, cleaning up messy books, and seeing my clients succeed. When you work with me, you’re not just hiring a bookkeeper—you’re gaining a partner who’s as invested in your success as you are.

Certifications:

  • Gusto Payroll Certified

  • Intuit QuickBooks Level 1 Certified

Bruce, the very best coworker!

‘I’ve spent over a decade in operations, human resources, and bookkeeping. This unique combination of experience allows me to keep your books in order while understanding how every financial decision impacts your business as a whole.’

“I've been with Lake Champlain Bookkeeping this year and it has been such a welcome relief. I had come out of a bookkeeping situation that had endangered my business and left me panicked. My accounting is complicated with numerous transactions, multiple accounts and a number of contractors to track. It's a medical practice with sensitive information that needs the utmost attention to detail and privacy.

Betsy is diligent, accurate, and knowledgeable. She is always on top of the finances, alerts me immediately if she detects something unusual and presents me with a comprehensive report every month. She patiently goes through each line item and explains things I find confusing, working closely with my tax accountant to save my business money.

I cannot give her a higher recommendation. She is outstanding at her job.”
