Which node version are you using? can you run node --version and make sure it is ^6.14.0 || ^8.10.0 || >=9.10.0?

[HarryAdney]

Install nvm if it isn't already.
nvm ls to get the version you're using. The default version is shown
nvm use 8.10.0 to change it - just replace 8.10.0 with whichever version you want to use.

Restart your command line for changes to take effect

If you want to always default to the latest version:
nvm alias default node

update node ^6.14.0 || ^8.10.0 || >=9.10.0
