I faced and fixed that problem and problem was that I was using the guard method in the eloquent model and then I was trying to save data using create method. Problem was that the array I was providing to create method as a parameter has an extra column apart from the table's column so somehow our created_at or updated_at field was getting disturbed. Once I fixed the extra column issue. The error was removed.

Running this on the date first should fix it. Likely getting an invalid date from the front-end.

function validateDate($date, $format = 'Y-m-d H:i:s'){
    $d = DateTime::createFromFormat($format, $date);
    return $d && $d->format($format) == $date;
}

function was copied from this answer or php.net
