Depends on how much of a baby - a hatchling or a 1,2, or 3 year old? Hatchlings can probably stay under for 10 minutes in cold water, less in warm water because they are cold blooded and warmth speeds up their metabolism.

How do you care for a baby painted turtle without uv light?

You don't. That's like saying "How do you feed a human with only water?" A turtle needs UVB and UVA light no matter what, they can't live without it. It is what allows them their shell to grow. If they don't have UVB or UVA light, their body will grow until their shell can't take it anymore and 'pop', dead turtle.
