Baby Station Beta was a space station that operated as a baby farm orbiting Pacifico Del Rio. The Fifteenth Doctor and Ruby Sunday landed on the station six years after it was abandoned due to a recession, finding it crewed by intelligent babies and their nanny, Jocelyn Sancerre. After solving the issue they had with the Bogeyman, the Doctor released a buildup of methane in the station's hull 3-B to propel it towards a nearby DuBarryDuPlessy planet in the system.

History
Baby Station Beta orbited the planet Pacifico Del Rio, serving as a baby farm to increase its population. In 21500, the government decommissioned the station due to a recession. However, it was illegal to shut off the station's parthenogenesis machine, meaning future babies born on the station would be left unattended. Captain Rico Trieste and officers Lucia Colasanto and Gina Scalzi submitted their resignations and protests about the closure on Pacifico date 56-56-22, before leaving the station. Accountant Jocelyn Sancerre secretly stayed behind to take care of the children, despite knowing little about the station's computers and systems.
A group of babies including Poppy, Eric, Marcel, Adjani, Sandra, Tasha, Ruben, Saltine, and Boo were born. Around the same time, the part of the station's computer focusing on education malfunctioned, becoming very literal-minded. Learning from children's stories about monsters, the station created one for the purpose of scaring the children made out of their snot, the Bogeyman.
Jocelyn, who kept herself hidden away from the children and only communicated with them through the station's computer, had no idea what the monster was and why it was there. For the next six years, she and the children were isolated aboard the station. The children remained physically babies, although their minds developed normally.
