Mama Cat Hiding The Kittens?

My cat gave birth to 3 babies yesterday. My mom will be home in about an hour or so with kitten food for mama to eat. But I have a major issue. My cat Bella, moved her kittens from the bathroom to the living room, UNDER THE COUCH!! Our couch is torn up and ratty. So the fabric of the couch is ripped open and so basically, they're in the couch now. We have 4 other cats. 3 girls and a boy. And they like to go under that couch too. So in other words, under/in the couch is not safe at all. Is there anyway to move the kittens or get her to move them before they could be hurt?

    Okay first of all, this has happened to me before and your other cats will no longer go there due to the scent of the kittens. She probably moved there because it's dark and quiet, maybe try preparing a spot for her in another dark spot like that?

    I would gently scoop them out and give them back to the mom. It is DEFINITELY not safe for them there. Maybe giver her a box tipped on its side with a blanket or cat bed
