Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this study is to evaluate the impact of a parental coaching based on E-Learning (EL), intended for parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Population: parents of young children (2 to 4 years old) with an ASD diagnosis.

The main questions that our study will answer are:

* Has parental coaching via E-Learning a significant impact compared to no coaching?
* If so, is that impact comparable to standard parental coaching such as PACT?

The impact will be evaluated in three domains:

* Child development: behavior, sleep, eating behavior
* Parental competences: stress, coping, feeling of parental competencies
* Parent-child interaction: communication, visual attention

The investigators will compare 3 groups:

1. ASD children whose parents will follow a parental coaching via E-learning,
2. ASD children whose parents will follow a standard parental coaching (PACT)
3. ASD children whose parents will not follow any specific coaching program
