Infant oddly seen in brambles (4)

I believe the answer is:

babe

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'infant' is the definition.
(I know that infant can be written as babe)

I don't understand the remainder of the clue.

(Other definitions for babe that I've seen before include "A literary newborn, or a modern good-looking woman" , "Stunner" , "& 3 Down Famous baseball player" , "good-looking young lady" , "A literary infant or a modern good-looking girl" .)
