Debera: how would her parents know about Diagon Alley to get 
Hermione's books her 1st year?
We know that Harry was shown where it was by Hagrid.


Juli now:
We have canon explaining why:

Ch 33
Conversation between Lily & Severus (at age 10-11):
"Petunia says there isn't a Hogwarts. It is real, isn't it?"
"It's real for us", said Snape. "Not for her. But we'll get the 
letter, you and me."
"Really?" Whispered Lily
"Definitely", said Snape...¨
"And it will come by owl?" Lily whispered
"Normally", said Snape. "But you're Muggle-born, so someone from the 
school will have to come and explain to your parents"

We also have the conversation between Dumbledore and Tom Riddle. 
Dumbledore volunteered to go with him to Diagon Alley, I take it it 
is a rutinary. If not with kids with parents (who are capable of 
going there all by themselves), al least with kids witjout families.
