What does majita or lajita mean?

I was at my 3 month old daughters dr.'s office and the nurse was calling her majita or lajita, What does this mean? I assume it's an endearing term. I heard her calling another baby the same thing.

Im COlombia is very common for parents to call their children "mijita" to the girls and " mijito" to the boys. For the record, any Spanish word that ends in either ito, illo is a male diminutive and ita, illa, is a female diminutive
