This error occurs when I attempt to test my React native code with Jest

The error code suggests the following steps, and I've tried both suggestions to no avail.

"Add @babel/preset-react (https://git.io/JfeDR) to the 'presets' section of your Babel config to enable transformation. If you want to leave it as-is, add @babel/plugin-syntax-jsx (https://git.io/vb4yA) to the 'plugins' section to enable parsing."

Here are my config files:

//babel.config.js
module.exports = function(api) {
      api.cache(true);
      return {
        presets: ['babel-preset-expo','@babel/preset-env','@babel/preset-react'],
        plugins: ['react-native-reanimated/plugin','@babel/plugin-syntax-jsx']
      };
    };


//.babelrc
{
  "plugins": [
    "module:react-native-dotenv",
    "@babel/plugin-syntax-jsx"
  ],
  "presets": [
    "@babel/preset-env",
    "@babel/preset-react"
  ]
}

//package.json
"dependencies":
{
...
"react": "17.0.1",
"react-native": "^0.64.3",
...
},
  "devDependencies": {
    "@babel/core": "^7.12.9",
    "@babel/plugin-syntax-jsx": "^7.16.7",

    "mockdate": "^3.0.5",
