I had some trouble getting around this since most information was for prior babel versions. For Babel 7, install these two dependencies:

npm install --save @babel/runtime 
npm install --save-dev @babel/plugin-transform-runtime

And, in .babelrc, add:

{
    "presets": ["@babel/preset-env"],
    "plugins": [
        ["@babel/transform-runtime"]
    ]
}
