It sounds like you're using too new of a version of node. When working on a v.0 project I always roll back to Node 6.11.5—it might be excessively low, but I know it works.

If downgrading doesn't work, a colleague who recently encountered this issue for hours ended up reinstalling npm, yarn and node and that fixed it. No idea exactly which one did it ultimately 🤷🏻‍♂️

Just an additional note if anyone else is struggling with this. If you're behind a corporate firewall that injects certs, it can play havoc with npm/yarn. Try hotspotting instead.
