It's a little one, darling (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

baby

I believe this is a double definition.

'it's a little one' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'darling' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for baby that I've seen before include "Timid person; very small" , "about to howl?" , "Very small (version)" , "Darling" , "Honey" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
