Need my license

I have 3 children, 1 who has a disability and 1 who has multiple health issues, my third child luckily doesn't have any of the above, all under 5. My issue is,
I still don't have my license, I can drive, everyone whose driven with me
Will say that, but, I fail the driving test within 5 minutes of getting in the car. It's a massive issue, I need my license, I am relying on others way to much. Does anyone have any tips? I fail for things I'd never do normally, it's just nerves send me crazy I think! Any tips? Thankyou x

EDIT- I have done over 40 hours with instructors, about 6 different driving schools.

I would go with a qualified instructor, tell them you get nervous while doing your test and they will work on your confidence. My nerves and anxiety do the same thing to me with job interviews, funny enough I got a job when I started taking meds for it. Something to look into maybe.

I'd also see a psychologist to help talk you through some strategies.
You could also look into using the logbook method?

Go and get lessons from a qualified instructor who will take you for lessons on the test routes.

I was so terrified to get behind the wheel due to anxiety, it was a huge deal for me. I got multiple lessons from a qualified instructor. I went through three instructors before I found one I felt comfortable with (the first told me I'd never get my licence).

I passed the test first go. :)
