Notes app information accidentally deleted
The notes folders and recently deleted folder was deleted by my daughter from her iPad. This also deleted all of the information on my iPhone. How do I get it back?

Since the notes were deleted from the Original Poster’s iPhone as well as iPad, they are almost certainly housed in iCloud. Notes housed in iCloud are not saved on an iPhone backup. They don’t require saving there, because they’re saved in “Recently Deleted” for thirty days.

You’re welcome.
Here’s one other important tip - it certainly sounds from your original post like you are sharing your Apple ID with your daughter. Regardless of her age, you should stop doing that immediately. Then thoroughly cleanse her iPad.
What to do before you sell, give away, or trade in your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
Set up Family Sharing if you wish.
From a backup made when the notes were present. Be advised
that restoring such a backup will overwrite everything newer
on the iPhone.
Stop sharing an AppleID. Your daughter should have her own
to prevent such mishaps in the future.
Having deleted “Recently Deleted” in addition to your Notes folder means all your information is gone. She deleted not only your information, but its backup.
Thank you. I did not know that.
You’re welcome. Glad to help.
Thank you for your help.
