There are wear indicators on brake pads that cause a sqealing sound to let you know it is time to change brake pads. These will often become quiet under hard braking conditions. Suggest you have your brakes checked soon. This is not the area you want to take chances with.

Another possibility if your pads are good is that your rotors may be warped. The warpage under light braking allows the pads to move excessively in the caliper hardware creating the squeal.
