You cannot apply for your child's PR outside of Canada. Either you or your wife must be in Canada to submit the application. To bring your child to Canada before your child has PR - you can try applying for a TRV. If the TRV is not approved then you can try applying for a TRP. If the TRP is also refused then one of you will have to travel to Canada alone to sponsor the child and remain there while the application is processed - while the other parent remains in your home country with your child.
