Getting good insurance quote for non-UK Driver

Hi,
Both my wife and I are from North America. I've lived here 11 years and about 6 years ago I took the UK driving test. My wife has a Canadian license that she can exchange for automatic UK license. We have a kid and need to get a car, but all the insurance quotes are very high - especially when adding my wife. 

I want to first get insurance in my name, but then add my wife once she gets her Canadian license converted?

Thanks
