Cannot find module 'babel-runtime/regenerator' Import locally vs Import from NPM

I'm working on an NPM module and I've been having issues with my babel configuration. I am using ES6, specifically with async / await, static class methods and import / export.

At first, I got the common issue of: ReferenceError: regeneratorRuntime is not defined. I, therefore, installed babel-plugin-transform-runtime as a dev dependency and added it to the plugins in .babelrc. When requiring the module with either the path name or through npm as a dependency I ran into the error Error: Cannot find module 'babel-runtime/regenerator'. It seems that to resolve this I'd have to require babel-runtime, however, a lot of people seem to recommend not doing this when it's a module that you are publishing.

After looking for some guides, I found one that suggested not using import / export, so I tried that. After building and requiring it locally it worked. However, when publishing to npm and importing as a dependency I continue to get the error: Error: Cannot find module 'babel-runtime/regenerator'.

  "devDependencies": {
    "babel-cli": "^6.26.0",
    "babel-eslint": "^10.0.1",
    "babel-plugin-transform-runtime": "^6.23.0",

  },

{
  "presets": [
    "env"
  ],
  plugins: [
    "babel-plugin-transform-runtime"
  ]
}

Could someone suggest how to fix this / give some advice for using babel when publishing npm modules?
