Dependent ba yung wife mo sa visa application mo? So this means may PR na rin siya? As far as I know, iba-iba kasi ang requirement depending on your target state.
Kung sa Queensland, eto ang mga kailangan:
1. Book and take the IELTS (International English Language Testing System) Academic Version with at least a score of 7.0 in Reading and Writing and a score of 8.0 in Speaking and Listening.
2. Complete teacher registration from Queensland College of Teachers (QCT). Lodge certified hardcopy of the following documents: Identity documents (birth certificate, current passport, national identification card, etc), Official academic record/transcript of all studied completed for the award of qualification, Graduation testamur/degree certificate, Partially completed higher education (certified copies of academic records/transcripts), Evidence of English Language Proficiency (IELTS TRF), Written professional reference, Certified copy of a national criminal record check (NBI Clearance), Fee for applicant with a current QLD Blue Card (AUD 241.65). (further information: https://www.qct.edu.au)
3. Have Early Childhood Teaching qualifications assessed by the Australian Children's Education and Care Quality Authority. (further information: http://www.acecqa.gov.au)
3. Apply for a Blue Card. (further information: https://www.bluecard.qld.gov.au)
4. Apply for a job. Take note of term dates:
Term 1: January to April (2 weeks holiday)
Term 2: April to June (2 weeks holiday)
Term 3: July to September (2 weeks holiday)
Term 4: October to December (5 weeks holiday)
Eto yung ibang teaching registration authorities per state:

Since the nursing occupation is both in the Skilled Occupations List (SOL) and Consolidated Sponsored Occupations List (CSOL), you may apply for either Skilled Independent visa (subclass 189) or Skilled Nominated visa (subclass 190).
You may read more about those visa classes in their respective official sites:
https://www.border.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/189-
