Holly Adult Day Care
WAONOEN in Nuuanu
– A New Style of Japanese Care, Built on Harmony, Flavor, and Connection –
With over 25 years of experience in elder care in Japan, Holly Services brings a new adult day care experience to the Nuuanu area of Honolulu.​​
Our Mission
At WAONOEN, our guiding mission is to bring peace of mind, joy, and connection to our community.
We offer warm, family-like care that nourishes both body and spirit.
The Meaning Behind “WAONOEN”
As the name “WAONOEN” (pronounced WOW-no-en) reflects, we value Wa (harmony), Ono (deliciousness), and En (connection) — bringing them together to enrich every day.
​Connecting Cultures Through Care
We also collaborate with day care programs in Japan, sharing monthly activities such as recreation, exercise, art projects, and even online exchanges.
This allows clients in Hawaii to enjoy meaningful engagement rooted in authentic Japanese caregiving culture.
Japanese Lunches Crafted with Experience
Our Japanese-style lunches are prepared by an experienced chef with over 23 years of background in creative Japanese cuisine.
