Low speed speed bump squeaking is most likely due to worn sway bar links and/or sway bar bushes. The parts are around 150-200€. Remember to buy new bolts and nuts. Don't go for aftermarket, go with oem parts. Basically an easy DIY task but you need some space and means to lift the car safely. Also the bolts and nuts need to be torqued with the suspension at the ride height. 40nm for the bar bushing clamps, 40nm+90 degrees for the link bolts.
