You need to do or you can update your shell config to load it each time shell opens.

This can be done by adding these lines to your shell config file ( ~/.bash_profile , ~/.zshrc , ~/.profile , ~/.bashrc , etc):

export NVM_DIR="$([ -z "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME-}" ] && printf %s "${HOME}/.nvm" || printf %s "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/nvm")"
[ -s "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ] && \. "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" # This loads nvm
