Welcome to Apple Community Support!

For this issue we would want to follow the guidance in this resource https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT205794

Here's how to reset your Notes password:

Go to Settings > Notes, then tap Password.
Select the Notes account that you want to change, then tap Reset Password.
Enter your Apple ID password, then tap OK.
Tap Reset Password again.
Enter your new password and password hint. Tap Done.

Please note :: Apple can't help you regain access to your locked notes. You can create a new password, but this won’t give you access to your old notes.

Hope this helps ;)
