Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

I live in illinois. I have lived with my boyfriend for a year, he just moved out, and we have a 18 month old. We have never been to court over her. he has been charged with domestic battery but i had it dropped to battery in the past. Does he have anyrights to my daughter or does he have the right to ask for rights? I have heard it both ways today.
