Mission

Design digital and printable speech-language materials to simplify speech therapy, encourage the acceptance of communication disorders, and for fun!

A Quick background

Beata Longo, M.A., CCC-SLP, is a speech-language pathologist and the founder of Bluebird Speech.

Bluebird Speech is named after a gift from an inspiring woman that a young Beata met while staying in Spain. The gift, a small handcrafted ceramic tile with a beautiful bluebird painted on it, is a symbol of hope and happiness in many cultures. For this reason, Beata keeps the bluebird tile in a safe place to remind her to pursue her dreams.

Beata creates constantly.  What began as making hemp necklaces evolved into the complex knitwear she makes today in her spare time.  In the digital realm, Beata obsessively creates printable speech therapy resources and Boom™ Cards.  With a keen interest in the dual roles of nature and technology, Beata incorporates these concepts into the digital materials that she makes for her speech caseload and other SLPs.

Above all, Beata enjoys spending time in and around her Austin bungalow with her partner (Nick), pet dog (Bruce), and 4 chickens (Kimchi, Jagger, Bubbles, and Henrietta Hawk). She posts about them from time to time on social media.
