yes - you can bring the child, as US citizens are visa-exempt. If asked at the border, explain that you are a PR of Canada and you will apply for sponsorship (outland, there is no inland for children) for your child, and you would like a 6 months visa. Most likely it will be no problem. Once in Canada, apply for PR for your child as soon as possible (it's a normal application), and make sure to extend the visa before it expires. Other solution is for go in and out of Canada ( to the US) to renew the visa ( but you can also do an online extension, include the proof that you have applied for PR and it should be granted).
