I would like my blog to be private
-
I am interested in making my entire blog private so that all readers would have to enter a password before they are able to entire the site. Is this possible?

A quick search displayed this FAQ about private blogs. http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

Thank you. Do you know how soon these changes will take effect? I switched so that our blog can no longer be found through search engines but it is still appearing.

That is in the hands of the search engines. It may take 6 months for you to disappear from Google, and for some of the other search engines, Yahoo in particular, you might still be in their indexes 100 years from now (assuming the internet is even around then). Yahoo never seems to delete anything.
I can still find some of my posts from my first blog of two years ago (that was set to private 1.5 years ago) on the web.
The only way to make sure nothing shows up is to set the blog to private immediately before making any posts at all.
