when child becomes automatically british?

hi

I'm from one of the EU countries, exercising treaty rights since 2004. Become permanent resident in 2011, not naturalized yet.
few months ago we had a baby and would like to get him british passport. I came across this info on gov.co.uk

"you’re automatically a British citizen if you were born in the UK after 1 January 1983 and 1 of your parents was a British citizen or settled here at that time. You don’t need to register."

Being permanent resident = settled ? correct? which means he can get british passport .

many thanks
Aga
