there are two schools of thought

single woman is any woman raising children alone(if raising doesnt equate to financing,, this applies to many married women,,,lol)

and the more popular ,, UNMARRIED mother(which is not indicative of whether she is raising a child alone, but too often assumed as such)

I personally feel one is a single mom if they are free from a romantic attachment and raising children,,,

19, is still teen.

In the u.s., even married 19 year olds, who give birth while married, are still classified as teen mothers.

If you're the only, or primary, caregiver to your child,
then emphatically, YES, you qualify as a single parent.
Provided, you're not married. Lol

In my book you are a teen mother. and since you are single you are a single parent.
