I've never encountered baby talk in the office, but I can totally sympathize with the reaction. When I was growing up, my mother taught us two things never to do. Never chew with your mouth open, and never use baby talk. I have a hard time listening to people use it to talk to their pets, I can't imagine anyone using it in a work setting. My sympathies!
