Probably, yes.
The child must live in your home with you more than half the year, or more than half the time since they were born. In turbotax, select "the whole year" -- if you select 5 months because the child was born in July, you won't be eligible.
You must be single (unmarried), or married but separated from your spouse for all of the last 6 months of the year.
You must provide more than half the cost of keeping the home where you live with the child. Other people can help (government assistance, charity, family), but you must pay more than half the overall cost.
