Exclamation Help!! Guppie just had babies!!

I have a tank with two female Jade head guppies, a male, 4 neon tetras, and a spotted catfish. When I got back from classes this morning, one of my females had babies. There are about 8 (that I can count) in the tank. I have a smaller tank b/c I live in a dorm room at college and don't have room. I have an artifical plant that is small and gravel at the bottom. Some are hiding in the gravel, some are in the plant, and some are swimming around the tank. The other fish don't seem like they are bothering the babies, just seem to be curious and swim up to them resulting in the babies quickly swimming away. I know that fish tend to eat babies. What do I do? Do I move them to a small bowl or leave them? I'm leaving in an hour for the weekend and need to know what to do. Thanks!!
