The Span¡shD!ct dictionary says:
Foster-child = Hijo o hija de leche
My own big dictionary says:
Foster-child = Hijo o hija de acogida
Foster-child = Hijo o hija de acogida
Niño de acogida, this is the word to use.
You would explain:
Tengo un niño que vive conmigo en régimen de acogida, no es un niño adoptado.
Many people confuse this with adopted child.
niño criado en otra familia
WordReference.com
Foster parent, es un padre o una madre de acogida. Foster Home, es una familia de acogida
