Or, because the children might get the trap door open, place a sump pump on the lowest section on the pool's base and have the discharge hose semi-permanently coming up through the deck somewhere where it won't be a tripping hazard. You are at the point now where you can "plumb" this in and run an extension cord to the pump. Your choice then as to how often you need to plug in the cord to see if there's water down there.

Neat looking job! Kudos to you.
