You must always backup your device before sending it for repair - as the repair process will erase all locally stored data.


If you have enabled Notes in iCloud, your Notes will still be accessible after your iPhone has been signed-in to your AppleID account using your AppleID:

Settings > [Your Name / AppleID] > iCloud > Notes - set to ON


Otherwise, if not using iCloud, your Notes (and other files) may be present in your iCloud or iTunes backup if you have one - and can be restored to your iPad:
