 Hi,

You may simply install a no-index, no-follow plugin such as Ultimate Noindex, nofollow tool for wordpress or the meta robots plugin. These plugins let you choose the specific pages or posts that you wish to de-index

 Another way to de-index your webpages is to list them to /disallow field in robots.txt file. This will help instruct search engines not to crawl certain webpages on your domain.

 I think you can do this by placing a forbidden command in the robots txt of your website. You can also use the google webmaster account to do that.
