  \"scripts\": {
    \"start-watch\": \"nodemon run-babel index.js\",

If you're using an UNIX-like environment, just use & as the separator:

"dev": "npm run start-watch & npm run wp-server"

Otherwise if you're interested on a cross-platform solution, you could use npm-run-all module:

"dev": "npm-run-all --parallel start-watch wp-server"
