Yes. A long vowel sound is when you say the name of the vowel. The A is the pronounced (ay) as if you were saying the name of the letter. The word "baby" has a long A. It also has a long E sound created by the Y (BAY-bee).

Where is the long vowel in baby?

The "A" for sure. In the first syllable, you have "BA" (rhymes with day). You know you have a long vowel because it says its name. In this case, the letter A in "baby" is a long vowel sound. (If it were a short vowel sound, it would not be pronounced like its name-- bat, for example, has a short vowel sound.) Sometimes, a letter like Y will have a vowel sound (in this case, it sounds like the E in the word "me"), but usually, a long vowel refers to the sound made by the letters A, E, I, O, and U. Here are examples of long vowels: Bake (long a); Me (long E); Time (long I); Joke (long O); and Tune (long U).
