Default Brakes are squeaking

on my wife's minivan.

I still want to learn to do brakes myself, and want to "help" next time someone is doing some but for now I need to get brakes done on my wifes Chrysler Town and Country.

Is this something I should take to a brake shop or something that is "stupid easy" with someone's help?

Is there a reputible brake shop in the area, near Double Diamond that won't soak me if I need to take it in?

Thanks for any help/advice.

If it has sliding calipers, which is almost certain, it's just like doing your WRX brakes.

If you have someone helping that knows how to do it, it's very easy to replace pads & rotors.
