The child will be a U.S. citizen, but it gives no legal status to the parents. If the parents are not in legal status in the U.S. right now, then they cannot stay permanently in the U.S. (they will still be considered in unlawful status). The child can petition the parents for U.S. Permanent Residency once the child turns 21 years old.
