A Correct answer
Explanation

The adverb 'usually' indicates a regular habit, so we use simple present tense 'sleeps' with third-person singular subject 'child'. 'Sleeping' is not a complete verb form, 'has been sleeping' is present perfect continuous for temporary situations, and 'slept' is simple past. Simple present correctly expresses this habitual action.
