My hermano se comporta como un niño chiquito.
Mi hermano se comporta como un jovenzuelo.
Mi hermano se comporta infantilmente.
In the case of childish usamos child (niño o niña)
childlike = como (un/una) niño/a
etc.
como un nino
I think "pueril" is the word you're looking for? It means childish but I don't think it could be used for youthful or boyish as they are words that have different meanings in English.
