They work part time and earn more than $6k. Can I claim head of household?

If you were able to claim them as a dependent it would be under the Qualifying Relative rules. One of the rules states that the dependents gross income in 2025 must be less than $5,200. So if their income is $6,000 you would not be able to claim them.

No. Since you don’t have a qualifying person.
