If the Notes appear to be correct at iCloud.com/Notes using a computer browser, try going to System Preferences/iCloud (Apple ID for Catalina) and stop Notes syncing by unchecking the box. Wait a couple of minutes, then check syncing. Allow time for the sync to complete.


Last resort  - have you tried signing out of iCloud and then sign back in?
