The first & second sentences there don't fit too well together for me, say sorry.
Yes, his parents were rich.
They paid for him to go to a good school.
They paid for a good nanny/housekeeper to care for him.
Does that = "He cared for him as best he could."?? Not really to my mind - they needed to give a bit of themselves to him - not just their money.
