The answer

If your nephew is not a to your daughter, his presence does not suffice for your daughter's need of a legal mahram. If performing is obligatory for your daughter—for instance, if it is her first Umrah and you are accompanied by a trustworthy group—the preponderant opinion is that it is permissible for a woman to travel for obligatory Hajj and Umrah with a trustworthy group, provided that fitna (temptation/strife) is safeguarded against, and provided she is an adult. However, if she is a young girl, there is no harm in her traveling with you without a mahram.
