Car cruising fast when setting out first thing

Hi
I'm new here, very happy with my CX-3 SE Nav since nearly a year ago.
Just started noticing recently though that when I set off to go out in the morning, once I've initially moved off in gear, when I take my foot off the clutch if I do it at normal speed the car just cruises away too fast. If I take my foot off the clutch really slowly the car just stutters and almost kangaroos.
It does seem to be just in the morning ie when the engine is cold, and as I said I've only noticed it quite recently (I've only 4000 miles on the clock), but just wondered if anyone knew of any related issues or had any similar problems?
I'm not techy with cars but it just seems a bit odd and leads to me having to practically stop the car and setting off again partially braking... fortunately I'm not coming along a busy road when I start out in the morning.
