You just need to keep the puppy away from wherever the kittens are until they have grown up a little, particularly if the puppy is 'bouncy'. When they are ten to twelve weeks old the mother should start to relax a little. After this time, re-introduce the cat and the puppy, not letting them stay in the same room together without supervision, until you are quite sure there will not be any further problems. If you are keeping any of the kittens, don't let them stay in the same room as the puppy without supervision until they are about six months old. There are always going to be exceptions to this safety rule and there is only one, risky, way to find out.
You don't say what breed the puppy is, but some are better with cats than others. E.g. I have a shih tzu and three cats, and he knows his place in the feline hierarchy - it's at the bottom and he's fine with that. There are breeds such as guard dogs that may be a more difficult mix with a cat, so there is a chance you could always have some issues between them.
