Which surfactant lacks in a new born baby?

I have never heard the surfactant called anything specific. Full term babies usually have surfactant (a mixture of lipids (fats) and proteins).

Why does oil miscible in solution of surf and water?

Presumably you mean surfactant and water? A classic surfactant molecule has a polar, hydrophilic end and a non-polar hydrocarbon liophilic end. With enough of a suitable surfactant, oil droplets will form with the liophilic part of surfactant molecules dissolved in the droplets and water molecules attached to the hydrophilic part of the surfactant. The oil disperses in the water.
