  Good afternoon,
  I suspect you’ll have to make your site a private site. To do this, follow the directions below:

  Privacy Settings
  The Site Visibility setting controls who can view your site, allowing you to make the site private or public. To access this setting, go to My Site → Settings and look for Site Visibility.

  Private Sites are visible only to users I choose. Select this option to make your site private. If you want specific people to be able to view it (and add comments, if you’ve enabled them), you’ll need to invite them to be a viewer.

  To view more detailed information about privacy settings, click here.
  Invite People to View Your Private Blog

  Follow these directions if you have a private blog that you want to share with users of your choice, without giving them any editing access to your blog.

  Go to People -> Add in your My Sites menu.

  In the Invite a New User to Your Blog section at the bottom, type the user’s email address or WordPress.com username, if you know it.

  Select Viewer from the dropdown.

  Your invited Viewer will receive an invitation email.

  They will need to click the “Accept Invitation” button in the invitation email. If they are logged into their WordPress.com account, they will be taken directly to your blog. If not, they will be taken to their Subscription Management page where they can manage all blogs they follow and adjust their email delivery frequency.

  Viewing and Removing Viewers from a Private Blog

  You can see who has accepted an invitation to view your private blog as well as remove viewers by going to your Dashboard and navigating to People, and selecting the Viewers tab at the top.
