  You may create another WordPress.com site and make it private. When you are ready, go to your “live” site and change the settings to what you had on the private site. You may also export and import content between the two sites.

  There is no easy, one click site design switch in WordPress.com. Just take notes on how you’ve modified the private site then apply it to the new site. The process you are talking about is more readily available on self-hosted WordPress sites (WordPress.org), where there are Plugins that will help with site migration from a development site to a live site with little hassle.

  Thanks.
