Espoo is included in the regional transport system of Helsinki. If you travel from Helsinki you'll need a regional ticket that costs 3 Eur. The better option are tourist tickets that can be purchased for 1, 3 or 5 days. (I had a 3-day regional ticket for 16 Eur). You need to show your ticket to the driver when you board the bus.
Buses to Tapiola leave very often from various points in Helsinki, one of them being Kamppi bus station that was under major construction when I was there. In order to avoid mess of the construction site, the easiest way is to take a metro to Ruohalahti (last station), pass the underground passage and wait for the buses there.
The trip from Kamppi to Tapiola takes about 20 minutes, and buses 106 and 109 leave every 5-10 minutes.
From the central station in Tapiola you can catch local buses that operate routes in Espoo.

if you want to go in to the centre of Helsinki you can use the buses. You usually take them when you go home at night too.
