What am I worth as RN?

Hey everyone!
I am in a serious need of change in my RN position right now. I am trying to apply for a NICU position at my local hospital and would be transitioning within the same company. But the catch is i am hung up on the application with the dreaded “expected salary question”.

Here is my work and eduction experience for reference:
2019 graduated from ADN program.
Approx 6months not working as RN as i was pregnant and then maternity leave.
BOOM COVID
2020- 2024 got first RN job at SNF to “wait it out” - worked there for 4 years
2024- present transitioned to HOME CARE as a primary care nurse managing 20-30 patients.

It’s not the job it’s the management that is the problem.

I did a little research to try and answer this question but the hold up is that i am at this current time underqualified for this job. I am a hard and dedicated worker so if given the proper resources i know i can properly thrive. So here are the numbers:

Currently making (salaried) approx $45 / hr
New grads in this state hired at approx $42 / hr
New grads in this company is approximately equivalent
Average NICU salary with this company is $61 / hr (before differentials)

What do i ask for starting? What is fair to ask of them and not to sell myself short?
